Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ subscript in latex

[templateuser]

Hi

First let me say great template and thanks a lot for making it so user friendly. I just have a quick question regarding subscripts in the text and headings. I have no problem with \textsuperscript outside math mode but I can't seem to be able to use \textsubscript. Do I have to use a different package for this? When I check online it says both should be included in the same/ default latex package. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS - I'm a newbie to latex, so please bear with me.

Hi Teresh,

Include the fixltx2e package in your preamble using: \usepackage{fixltx2e}. After this, you can use \textsuperscript{text} and \textsubscript{text} in the text and headings.

Cheers,

A few other possibilities:

• KOMA-Script classes define \textsubscript on their own if it isn't defined, yet. The package scrextend makes it available for other classes, too, along with a number of others of KOMA-Script's goodies.
• the memoir class also provides \textsubscript (but changing the class would have a lot of other impact so probably not a choice here…)
