How can I create an exponent in the pages application?

Hi,

Do you mean superscript?

Type this:

The yield of wheat was 5 kg ha-1 in the unfertilised plots.

Select -1

Menu > Format > Font > Baseline > Superscript

The yield of wheat was 5 kg ha^-1 in the unfertilised plots.

Or,

Format Panel > Text > Font > Gear Wheel (Advanced Options) > Baseline > Superscript

Regards,

Ian.

Or for simple in-line exponents (superscripts) Menu > View > Customise Toolbar and drag the Superscript button to your Toolbar

The forum software is playing up. I get email notifications before replies are posted 😉.

Regards,

Ian.

Simple superscripts inline with text as pointed out by Yellowbox. Complicated mathematical superscripts/equations formed with Grapher in Applications/Utilities, are selected/dragged/dropped into Pages as an image. Alternate is the MathType trial that integrates into the Pages Insert menu.
