Hi,
I am basically using EMW8 as the company name. I'd rather do away with
the 8, but some sod is just sitting on the domain. to make it be less
important I want to make it superscript throughout the website
whenever name dropping. So in this instance should I make a span,
setting lower type face and padding-bottom that could work and not
screw up all the other default stylings?
Another option could be just to make a span making the 8 a soft grey
rather than black, but I have already started to devlop the logo and
it looks quite cool being ss.
Not making things easy for myself!
Cheers, CB

That looks really cool and simple and seems to fix things nicely. How
come I never thought of that?
Don't know. What I /do/ know is that the problem drove me crazy
until I hit on that idea.
Are there any hidden problems?
None that I've encountered so far, but that is not to suggest that
there isn't something /really/ nasty waiting to bite when I am
least expecting it :-)
There's the inherent problem that depending on the font
characteristics,
the line height, the characters in the text, the font size of the
superscripts, the factors you've chosen, and the phase of the moon,
some
subscripts or superscripts might come too close, or even hit,
characters
on another line. But that's a risk we need to accept and to prepare
for
(especially by setting line-height and other key properties well).
Agreed.
