But if your principle text is set in 12 point, then super and
subscripts will be set at a smaller size (typically 9 pt or so), as
will footnotes. Super and subscripts in footnotes will be set at a
smaller size (about 6 pt). Since I do a lot of technical typesetting
(lots of equations), a document set with 12 pt type for the principal
face will contain lots of 9 pt and 6 pt type, so it's necessary to
have good-looking type at far smaller sizes than I use for the main
text.
