ordinal number (st / nd / ...)

Hi!

When we write an ordinal number - 1st , ...- the suffixes - st, nd, rd, th, -should be written superscipt above the number. Is it right?

Both are acceptable. I prefer the superscript version. Many word processors actually turn them into superscript form as you type.
