The normal way of entering quotation marks in text mode (two back ticks for the left and two apostrophes for the right), such as \text {a ``quoted'' word} will not work correctly. As a workaround, you can use the Unicode left and right quotation mark characters, which are available from the "Symbols" dropdown panel beneath the editor: \text { a ...
Superscripts and subscripts of arbitrary height can be done with the \raisebox{<dimen>}{<text>} command: the first argument is the amount to raise, and the second is the text; a negative first argument will lower the text. In this case the text is not resized automatically, so a sizing command can be included, e.g. go\raisebox{1ex}{\large home}.
The TeX markup of <math>...</math> uses a serif font to display a formula (whether as SVG or HTML). HTML math expressions should use the {} template so they display in a serif font as well. Doing so will also ensure that the text within a formula will not line-wrap, and that the font size will closely match the surrounding text in any skin.
A superscript or subscript is text that is positioned slightly above or below the normal line of type. Superscripts and subscripts are often rendered in a smaller font size than the adjacent normal text. This part of the Manual of Style aims to achieve consistency in the use and formatting of superscripts and subscripts in Wikipedia articles.
The subscript text in the first integral above, using \mbox, is conspicuously bigger than in the second, which uses \text (on some browsers, you might not see this effect if you're using mathJax, and on others you will, and it may also depend on how you have set your preferences). \text, on the other hand, uses sizes appropriate to the ...
These characters allow any polynomial, chemical and certain other equations to be represented in plain text without using any form of markup like HTML or TeX. The World Wide Web Consortium and the Unicode Consortium have made recommendations on the choice between using markup and using superscript and subscript characters:
Superscripts and Subscripts is a Unicode block containing superscript and subscript numerals, mathematical operators, and letters used in mathematics and phonetics. The use of subscripts and superscripts in Unicode allows any polynomial, chemical and certain other equations to be represented in plain text without using any form of markup like HTML or TeX.
This template provides a simple means of coding inline mathematical material that has subscripts and superscripts, for display in the same typeface as the surrounding text. The rendering is always done in HTML ; this offers an alternative to using the TeX preprocessor via the <math>...</math> tags, which display the material in a serif typeface ...
