Possible Duplicate:
How do I write superscript word for checkbox text in java?

So I have this very simple program that basically consists of a GUI with a few text fields and a button.

The idea is that the user enters numbers into three fields and presses the button. Then what happens is a few mathematical procedures are carried out in the background, and the resuling answer is presented in a fourth text field.

Now, this does the job, but the formatting looks awful. At the very least, I would like to have part of the output superscripted. I have next to no experience with these things, but thought I would be able to get the hang of this on my own, but I’m stuck. I think I need to use AttributedString and possibly Font, but I can’t get anything to work. And I’ve found no tutorials.

Does anyone have any quick pointers? That’d be most helpful!

    Do you need the output field to be editable? If not, try using a JLabel with HTML code. Something like:

    jLabel4.setText("<html>ax<sup>2</sup>+bx+c</html>");

    You can add a border to that JLabel to make it look like a text field.
