    Hi Jason2023 ,


    I am not sure how it will helps you but you can try with creating a custom column and paste below provided code in the custom column pop up box and replace your column with your actual column name.

    // Add this as a New Custom Column formula in Power Query
    let
        txt = [YourColumn],
        replacements = {
            {"0","⁰"},
            {"1","¹"},
            {"2","²"},
            {"3","³"},
            {"4","⁴"},
            {"5","⁵"},
            {"6","⁶"},
            {"7","⁷"},
            {"8","⁸"},
            {"9","⁹"},
            {"(n)","(ⁿ)"},
            {"+","⁺"},
            {"-","⁻"}
        },
        result = List.Accumulate(replacements, txt, (state, r) => Text.Replace(state, r{0}, r{1}))
    in
        result
