Word already has pre-defined character Styles for some of these... And why would you need character Styles for Superscript & Subscript? Besides which, you might start by doing some basic learning, starting with: Customize or create new styles - Microsoft Support (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/customize-or-create-new-styles-d38d6e47-f6fc-48eb-a607-1eb120dec563).

The rest is just a simple matter of using Find/Replace.

Here are my articles on creating character styles for proofing language settings using vba.


Using Styles for Proofing Language Settings - Microsoft Community (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/using-styles-for-proofing-language-settings/0a1bbf21-eaac-4044-afe6-253bfc47d65f)
Creating "No proofing" styles in Microsoft Word - No Spell Check character style and Code paragraph style - keep text from being checked for spelling or grammar (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/creating-no-proofing-styles-in-microsoft-word-no/999c8de4-dac2-4fac-be07-ab55e8d636cc)

They may help you. They do check for existing styles and discuss assigning keyboard shortcuts.

Look into the Emphasis and Strong styles that come with Word.
