There is none. ASCII values range only from 0 to 127. It is like

Thank you.
I wonder, then, why those encodings also include the ASCII part.
Should not the ASCII be an independent encoding?

Just do it!
Decide what the main fontsize is to be and how much smaller you want
the superscripts to be (maybe 2/3rds or 3/4ths the main text size)
Decide what Y offset you want for the Superscript.
I like: SuperScriptDeltaY = MainTextAscent + SuperScriptTextHeight/2

Hello,
Is there a way to make (Superscript 1,2,3 and 4)
Encodings.UTF8.Chr(&hB9)
Encodings.UTF8.Chr(&hB2)
Encodings.UTF8.Chr(&hB3)
Encodings.UTF8.Chr(&h2074)
have the same vertical offset as these (Superscript 0,5,6,7,8 and 9)
Encodings.UTF8.Chr(&h2070)
Encod
Thanks Norman,
I see.

I know that Encodings.utf.chr(178) works for 2, but what about the rest?
