Yep, it looks good on my system as well. I had tried expression(S^2[t]) but not expression(S[t]^2) and the order matters.

Thanks for the help.

 Dear List,

 I'd like to add text to a plot where a text symbol has both a
 superscript and subscript.  For example, the variable S with a
 superscript 2 and a subscript t.  I have been able to accomplish this
 using either

 expression( paste(S,atop(scriptstyle(2),scriptstyle(t))) )

 or

 expression( {S[t]}^2 )

 but the spacing isn't quite right (or rather what I'd like) using
 either of these.  By 'right' I mean the placement and spacing don't
 quite coincide with what I'd expect if I superimposed S^2 with S[t].
 Is there a way to place BOTH a subscript and superscript so that they
 are placed identically as if I had overlayed S^2 and S[t]?

 I'm using R 1.9.0 on Mac OSX.

 Thanks,
 Brian
