Use this interactive demo to learn how to apply superscript formatting to any character in Figma.

Quick summary

Figma's Type Settings panel lets you convert any selected character into a superscript in just a few clicks using the Position option under the Details tab. This built-in typographic feature requires no plugins and works directly inside your Figma design canvas.


Steps

  1. Select the character you want to convert by highlighting it inside your Figma design canvas.
  2. Open the Type Settings icon found in the right-side panel under the Design tab.
  3. Switch to the Details tab and locate the Position option under the Numbers section.
  4. Choose Superscript from the available Position options.
  5. The selected character will instantly be converted into superscript format in your design.

📌 Why this matters

Figma's native superscript formatting gives designers precise typographic control without relying on third-party plugins, making it essential for creating professional annotations, footnotes, mathematical notation, and trademark symbols directly in the design canvas. Mastering the Type Settings panel unlocks advanced text styling options that improve design accuracy and consistency across components. For teams working on documentation, technical diagrams, or brand assets, knowing how to apply superscript in Figma saves time and ensures pixel-perfect typographic output.
