Does anybody know how to make the 'th' or 'nd' small when typing a date in pages?

I'm using pages 5.5.2 and can't seem to find how to do it anywhere.

I would appreciate a quick response as I'm typing an urgent document.

Thanks,

Kevin

Unicode does not have ordinals for numbers, only for the masculine and feminine.

The reason being that each language has its own and the effect can be achieved with Superscripting.

To superscript say st, nd or th select the characters > Menu > Format > Font > Baseline > Superscript

or

control command shift +
