subElement
Renders text in subscript.
The text is rendered smaller and its baseline is lowered.
Example
Revenue#sub[yearly]
Parameters
typographic
Whether to use subscript glyphs from the font if available.
Ideally, subscripts glyphs are provided by the font (using the subs
OpenType feature). Otherwise, Typst is able to synthesize subscripts by
lowering and scaling down regular glyphs.
When this is set to false, synthesized glyphs will be used
regardless of whether the font provides dedicated subscript glyphs. When
true, synthesized glyphs may still be used in case the font does not
provide the necessary subscript glyphs.

N#sub(typographic: false)[1]
Default: true
baseline
The downward baseline shift for synthesized subscripts.
This only applies to synthesized subscripts. In other words, this has no
effect if typographic is true and the font provides the necessary
subscript glyphs.
If set to auto, the baseline is shifted according to the metrics
provided by the font, with a fallback to 0.2em in case the font does
not define the necessary metrics.
Default: auto
size
The font size for synthesized subscripts.
This only applies to synthesized subscripts. In other words, this has no
effect if typographic is true and the font provides the necessary
subscript glyphs.
If set to auto, the size is scaled according to the metrics provided
by the font, with a fallback to 0.6em in case the font does not
define the necessary metrics.
Default: auto
body
The text to display in subscript.
