[Dspace-general] non-standard characters in DSpace

[Dušan Vasiljević]

Hello Satu,

You can use HTML tags <sub>subscript</sub> and <sup>superscript</sup> for
displaying in web browser, although if you copy that text to simple text
editor you will loose formatting. In mathematics it is common to use (when
using plain text) ^ for superscript, like x^2, and _ for index, like x_i
