Assuming you mean something like A2+B3=C5...

Type your text into Open Office - then highlight the individual characters you want to change (in this case it's the numbers)

Select Format then click on Character, and select Superscript - Click OK to finish. OpenOffice will raise the text and reduce the font size so it looks like the above example.

I select the character(s) to be an exponent /subscript

  1. Go to Format (on the menu)
  2. Select Character
  3. Go to the Position tab
  4. Select Superscript / Subscript

On that tab I can adjust the size and how high / low relative to the normal character the superscript /subscript is to be (when making presentations I often exaggerate the raised height - to maybe 40% or 50%)

Highlight the text you want to change, click Format then Character, tick the 'subscript' option in the dialogue box that opens - then click OK. This will change the text you highlighted into subscript.
