Text Formatting ⇒ Horizontal aligning superscript & subscript before a symbol

[cgnieder]

Ah, that was a misunderstanding on my part. Here you go:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[version=3]{mhchem}
\begin{document}
\ce{^{$k$}_{$l$}S}
\end{document}

[cgnieder]

I cannot troubleshoot why \ch doesn't work, because the error message is too long to fit in the notification window, and it has no scrollbar. The preamble has \usepackage{chemmacros}.

The error message is (like all error messages) written to the log file. You can open it in an editor and have a look.

Thank you for your help! Unfortunately now prescript again doesn't work, and the error file is 56 k long.

EDIT: In fact, OooLaTeX has completely stopped working, always producing an error message.

EDIT 2: Removed tensor package from preamble. It prevented even 1+1 from working. Now the 1+1 and even \prescript do work. I managed to get the big character as non-italics! Thank you very much!
