[DCRM-L] Fwd: question about dcrm (B) rule 7b9 signatures

[John Attig]

Not sure why this came to me, but I didn't want to reply without 
consulting the wider group.  Am I correct that the use of superscripts 
is not required?

Would someone like to respond to this message?

Mr. Attig,

I'm working cataloging rare books and the library will use Descriptive 
Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books) (DCRM(B)).
My question is:
in the rule 7b9 the signatures, put superindice at numbers, for example: 
[A]³ B-C² D¹ 1-8²
but in the library we use CDS/ISIS and just admit ascii code only until 
alt+255, and we can't to write numbers like superindice 4 or 6 or 8.

We see that some libraries had use *. For example: [A]3 B-C2 D1 1-8*2

Is correct to use this notation form? or, there is another way to write 
the notation for signatures?

Thank you very much.

PS: Sorry for my english.
