Dorico 6.1.1 : Superscript in Project Info?

Hi everyone,

With Dorico 6.1.1, I’m not able to include a superscript character in the project title. Am I missing something, or is that just not supported?

Best,

Francis

Did you create a superscript character style? Think it needs to be a font that supports it, though.

Some fonts include the character you want, I use it all the time (U+2116), although the N is capitalized. There might be a variant with a lower case n.

(Edit) nope, it turns out 2116 is a glyph used in cyrillic languages and you’re right, in French we should be using low case n and low case superscript o (and s if needed)

On a Mac, Option 0 (zero) gives the “masculine ordinal” superscript character. The feminine (a) is Option 9. (English keyboard layout.)

But the essential point is that the {@style tags only work if there’s a corresponding Character Style.

U+2116 is very definitely the Unicode glyph for the “Numero” symbol.

Thank you for your answers! U+2116 doesn’t fit my needs because of the bar under the “O.”

I fixed it by using a character style with superscript enabled (no need for OpenType features).

FWIW, I’ve been using 2116 for years (I even requested it in Nepomuk!), and it’s only answering this thread that I ran into the information about cyrillic languages (in Wikipedia). As it is the kind of detail I like, I think I am going to look quite a little deeper into this :wink:
