Question

I am looking for the Unicode or some method or byte language that can put out superscripts for 1, 2, 3. For whatever reason Unicode has superscripts for 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, but not 1, 2, 3.

Can you do superscripts like HTML in NSString?

Answer 1

From the character palette:

¹
SUPERSCRIPT ONE
Unicode: U+00B9, UTF-8: C2 B9

²
SUPERSCRIPT TWO
Unicode: U+00B2, UTF-8: C2 B2

³
SUPERSCRIPT THREE
Unicode: U+00B3, UTF-8: C2 B3

This, to make them in to NSStrings, you’d do:

NSString *superscript1 = @"\u00B9";
NSString *superscript2 = @"\u00B2";
NSString *superscript3 = @"\u00B3";
