Steps for Creating Subscripts and Superscripts
Before you can get to insert and edit your PDF files, you need to have PDFelement downloaded and installed on your computer. Once the installation is complete, run the application and follow these simple steps to insert or edit subscripts and superscripts on your PDF document.
Step 1. Upload PDF to Edit
PDFelement typically starts up with a simple screen with large and visible options. You can use a couple of methods to import your file, including drag-and-drop and the longer windows explorer method.
For the latter, click "Open files" at the domain window, select your file on the explorer window, and click "Open" to upload the file. The time it takes for the file to upload will usually depend on the size of the file, with larger files taking slightly longer but not more than a few seconds.
Step 2. Activate PDF Editing Mode
The editing function is usually inactive by default. So once you have your document uploaded, click the "Edit" tab on the home menu bar then click "Edit" and then click anywhere within the document to activate the editing function.
Step 3. Insert Subscript or Superscript
With editing enabled, the subscript and superscript options will also be enabled. These are located below the font type selection box. To use either of them, select the character(s) you wish to convert to subscript or superscript, click on either icon on the menu bar, and voila. Your subscript or superscript should be created instantly.
Step 4. More Editing Options
You can also use other editing features to make further edits to your document. Feel free to add, edit, or delete text and images until the document looks as professional as possible. Once you are through with all the edits and modifications, always remember to save your file to commit any changes made.
