Thanks . . . that works . . . but now my superscript is in the new size (not made smaller). Is there a way to tell it to keep it proportional?

Also, the baseline skip doesn't seem to do anything. It ends up that the top of the text of each line is at basically the same place as the bottom of the previous line . . . maybe a tiny bit lower, but certainly not sensible line spacing.

Also, it has to be within the document tags, not in the preamble.
