Subscript ASCII Entity Number

Subscript ASCII Entity Number

Hi Folks,

Not sure if this is the right forum (maybe Math?), but I "cut and pasted" a WordPerfect file (plain text) into a Resource item, and I'm trying to format some Chemistry elements that have super and subscripts so they sit above and below the line of text.

I'm having good luck using ASCII Entity Numbers because they don't change the line spacing. Superscript 2 is &#178; and superscript 3 is &#179; but I can't find any for subscripts. I've tried using HTML tags: <sub><font size="-3"><b>2</b></font></sub> but again, I'm left with uneven line spacing.

Does anyone know where I could find subscript entity numbers?

Thanks for any help,
Sue
