If its the same word throughout which is in subscript and it has an s on
the end (either end), then I would find and replace the word without an
s. Then find and replace by putting the s back in. I even tried 's and
that worked.

I've just done this and the replaced s on the end of the subscript is in
normal size. If I manually type a character at the end of a subscript
then the character is also subscript.

Perhaps you could attach a sample file of what you have and what you want.


Again maybe I'm missing something.
