About Subscript Text

Subscript characters sit below the baseline — like the “2” in H₂O or the “1” in x₁. Unicode covers subscript numbers and a set of common letters; characters without a dedicated subscript glyph keep their normal form so your text stays readable.

Where to Use Subscript

Use subscripts for chemical formulas, math variables, footnotes, and decorative Instagram or Discord text. Browse every subscript letter in the Unicode character chart.

FAQ

What is a subscript example?

H₂O (water) and x₁ (first variable) are the classic examples — the character appears lowered below the line.

Why do some letters not become subscript?

Unicode only defines subscript forms for a subset of letters. Unsupported characters are left as normal text to keep the word intact.
