These are referred to as ordinal endings. You do you the contraction for them if possible.

I was always told we needed to follow the print version of the book, that is why I am asking. For my part I don't think it is all that important in this case to leave it without the superscript. ----- Original Message ----- From: Karina Gregory To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2005 6:46 PM Subject: [duxuser] Re: superscript sign as in the 28th of the month? Is it really important that it's in superscript - is it for a reason? If not, and if it just follows the print format, then personally I wouldn't worry about it and just translate it as normal. The only superscript sign I know if is the "ing" sign, but that's for maths. HTH.

I need to write 28 with the superscript th after the 8. How do I do that in print within the Duxbury program? Barb
