The sup tag displays text as a superscript, and the sub tag displays it as subscript. The exact position and size of super/sub-scripted text is defined by the font. The two elements are equivalent to <span font-size="subscript" vertical-align="super"> and <span font-size="subscript" vertical-align="sub"> respectively.
