\begin{document}
If you don’t want your images, rules, or text to be placed along the baseline, you can use the \autodoc:package{raiselower} package to move them up and down.
(The \autodoc:package{footnote} package uses this to superscript the footnote reference numbers.)

It provides two simple commands, \autodoc:command{\raise} and \autodoc:command{\lower}, which both take a \autodoc:parameter{height=<dimension>} parameter.
They will respectively raise or lower their argument by the given height.
The raised or lowered content will not alter the height or depth of the line.

Here is some text raised by \raise[height=3pt]{three points}; here is some text lowered by \lower[height=4pt]{four points}.

The previous paragraph was generated by:

\begin[type=autodoc:codeblock]{raw}
Here is some text raised by \raise[height=3pt]{three points}; here is some text lowered by \lower[height=4pt]{four points}.
\end{raw}
