How to apply font size while rendering HTML code in Android or Java

Question

My code is as follows.

textView.setText(Html.fromHtml("6<sup>4</sup>"));

The output is:

Now I want to change the size of 4, so I applied the font as follows, but font is not getting applied.

textView.setText(Html.fromHtml("6<sup><font size="-2">4</font></sup>"));

How do I fix this problem?

Answer 1

According to android.text.Html (on GrepCode), you may use <small> for smaller text, as <font> only supports color and face attributes.
