raised "st" or "rd" ALT command

Hello,

Is there an ALT + command to write a raised rd, or st.

Example: 3rd, 1st.

I need to use the ALT command because I am writing this in a book editing software which doesn't accept it to be pasted from a word document.

Thanks!

Wouldn't the answer to that question be included in the reference manual for that software?

Yea the commands are universal, and yes, unfortunately the windows commands don't have a way to generate the raised st, or rd letters. But it seems to me I can leave it lowered which would be fine too I guess as enoon mentioned.

Are you differentiating between Windows commands and Word commands?

Because in Word, I can use Ctrl-Shft-+ to do superscripts.

Yes, when I copy paste the superscript from word into bookSmart, the superscript isn't retained.
