How to superscript text in your email

In ActiveCampaign, you can easily create superscript and subscript text in your emails using HTML tags within an HTML content block. This feature is particularly useful for including elements like trademarks, scientific notation, and more in a visually appealing manner. Understanding how to implement these text formats is crucial for creating polished and professional emails that convey your message accurately.

How to Access this Feature

To use superscript text in your emails, you need to have access to the ActiveCampaign Email Designer or the Classic Designer. This feature is available across all plan types, including Starter, Plus, Pro, and Enterprise.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Using the Email Designer

1. **Open Your Campaign or Automation Email**

  - Navigate to your desired email campaign or automation email where you wish to add superscript or subscript text.
  

2. **Add an HTML Content Block**

  - Locate where you want to insert the text and drag and drop the HTML content block into the desired position.

3. **Insert Your HTML Code**

  - Click inside the HTML container. An HTML window will appear at the bottom of the screen.
  - Add your content and wrap it in the appropriate HTML tags. Here’s how you can do this:
    - For Superscript: 

<code><p>Trademark<sup>&trade;</sup></p></code>

    - For Subscript: 

<code><p>This text contains subscript<sub>&trade; &reg;</sub> text.</p></code>

4. **Finalize Your Edits**

  - Click outside of the HTML block to see your superscript or subscript text in the email.

  - Insert your HTML code, just like in the Email Designer. Remember to replace sample text with your own.

4. **Save Your Changes**

  - Click Save to apply your changes, making the superscript or subscript text visible in your email.

Configuration Options and Settings

While using these features, pay attention to the following options:

• HTML content block: This is the primary tool you will use to add your superscript or subscript text.
• Custom HTML modal window: Used in the Classic Designer to input your HTML code.
• Always remember to test your email before sending it out to ensure the formatting appears as intended.

Best Practices

When utilizing superscript and subscript text in your emails:

• **Keep It Concise**: Use superscript and subscript sparingly to avoid cluttering your message.
• **Test Your Emails**: Always preview and test your email to check how it appears in various email clients.
• **Consistent Styling**: Ensure the superscript and subscript text is consistent with the overall styling of your email for a professional look.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with superscript or subscript text not rendering properly:

• Check your HTML code for any syntax errors.
• Ensure you are using the correct HTML tags.
• Preview your email in different email clients to confirm rendering issues are not client-specific.

Common Use Cases with Examples

1. **Trademark Symbols**: Adding the ® symbol next to a brand name to represent its trademark status.

  - Example: “ActiveCampaign™"
  

2. **Mathematical Expressions**: When discussing scientific topics, you might need to use superscripts to denote exponents.

  - Example: “E=mc²”
