Actually what smsamrc is asking is to print at the console something like this:
To have 2 as base and 3 to be smaller and to the upper right corner of 2.

So, a superscript?

Do they work in the console? I suspect not. You could use the unicode symbols for ² or ³ (00B2 and 00B3), but that's all, I think.
In JLabels and the like you can use HTML formatting, of course.
