public void paint(Graphics g) {
    Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
    g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);

    AttributedString as1 = new AttributedString("JavaTM");
    as1.addAttribute(TextAttribute.SUPERSCRIPT, TextAttribute.SUPERSCRIPT_SUPER, 4, 6);
    g2d.drawString(as1.getIterator(), 15, 60);
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Java Superscript Example");
    frame.add(new TextAttributesSuperscript());
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

    frame.setSize(320, 190);
    frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    frame.setVisible(true);
