Specifying baseline shift


    Baseline shift controls the distance that text appears from its baseline, either raising or lowering the selected text to create superscripts or subscripts.

    Note: For information on adjusting the baseline of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts, see Adjusting tsume.

To specify baseline shift:

    In the Character palette, enter a value for Baseline Shift Baseline Shift icon. A positive value moves horizontal text above and vertical text to the right of the baseline; a negative value moves text below or to the left of the baseline.
