See Section 6.4.2 at ST 428-7.

It shall be possible to apply a superscript/subscript style parameter to a <span> element, for the purpose of introducing an offset from the baseline of horizontal text.  The parameter value shall be one of "sub", "super" or "normal".

For a value of "normal", no modifications to the rendered text shall be made. 
For a value of "sub"  and "super", the baseline of the <span> element shall be offset vertically by – 0.5 em  and 0.5 em, respectively. In both cases, the font size shall be 0.6 em.

The parameter is not applicable when vertical progression is used.
