Reply To: Can I Undo InDesign's Automatic Superscript for trademarks?

Strictly speaking, you don’t have to worry that much about it. There is no legal requirement to acknowledge the marks of others, and for yours, you need to “sufficiently put the public on notice” that your marks are yours. This means stuff like the cover, some frontispiece that says “XYZ is a trademark of so-and-so”, once in a while in, for example, large type of a title of a chapter. Many writers pepper TM and R bugs everywhere and sweat if any are missed, but that’s a wasted exercise. And not that it matters, but in my work, my body copy uses the regular R and TM symbols that the typeface gives me, and it’s good enough. But that’s my personal preference.
