Hi
I just downloaded Ubuntu 5.10 which comes with Open Office 2.  It
has no help files though.  I just want to know how to make a root
sign such as 2(squared)=4 3(cubed)=27.

Trivial, I know.  I was just wondering.

If these superscripted characters are available in the font
you are using, go to the menu bar and click on Insert >
Special Character, then pick the character you want out of
the list of available characters.  Even if they are present,
most fonts only have 2 and 3.  Any other powers would
have to be expressed some other way.

Of you could type it in the following way: 2 then Control+Shirt +P then 2 then = then 4. (3 then Control+Shift+P then 3 then = then 27.)

Lastly you could use Math to insert your formula.


I guess I misunderstood.  I thought he just wanted to enter
characters into a text document.
