Hello,

Do you have a tip for typing "squared" with a MAC keyboard?

(Similar: the small 2 that is at the top left, under the escape key, on PC keyboards)

Thank you in advance.
Configuration: Mac OS X Safari 531.21.10

    Good evening,

    It is about putting the number in "Superscript." In most software, you will find this function in the menu "Font / Baseline / Superscript..." or "Format / Font / Baseline / Superscript..."
    The shortcut in Mac applications is often the combination of keys Shift - cmd - +

    Sincerely

      1) To keep it simple: write on a document m² and put the 2 in superscript.
      2) Select m² with superscript and copy
      3) Go to "AutoCorrect"
      4) Replace m² with m²(superscript) (by pasting) and click on formatted text.
