It seems that you didn't watch my epub Superscripts and underscripts are not problems any more in ADE with the following styles:

No, I really did review the epub you put together to explain (and thanks again). Still looking through it to see what else I can learn.
DaleDe suggested trying line-spacing = 0 and that didn't seem to help doing just that
I'm still working through your sample, but so far I think that the classes for sup and sub work best for inline text, and the font superscript and subscript characters for the hopefully few instances where there's a square root sign. For those the font characters looks much better.
The
letter-spacing was a great tip (as I said in #7) and fixes the 'too close' characters. I might do that everywhere since it seems to improve readability.
The
text-decoration: overline; was also new to me, and combining with the radical sign does make it look much nicer.
I'll add some new clips for these, but I wonder if there's a way to allow the user to select their own glyphs for [Insert Symbol]?? That would make it more convienent.
So here's where I am for now, thanks to your and Jellby and DaleDe's suggestions
Code:
p {
font-size: 1em;
text-align: left;
margin: 0 0 0.25em;
text-indent: 0;
}
.indent {
text-indent: 2em;
}
.overline {
text-decoration: overline;
}
.underline {
text-decoration: underline;
}
.jump {
margin-bottom: 2em;
}
.ls {
letter-spacing: 0.2em;
}
sup {
line-height: 0;
vertical-align: super;
font-size: 60%;
}
sub {
line-height: 0;
vertical-align: sub;
font-size: 60%;
}
So here's the current version in ADE. There's no line spacing changes caused by tghe sub/super scripts (a good thing), the sub/super scripts are readable, the square root looks nice. Only small thing is the line break between the
a and the superscript
2 towards the end. I checked and there is no space between.
All I can say is that I'm glad I don't do this for a living. This whole project started out as doing a favor for my brother, and I wanted to make it look as nice as I could (easily
)
