Highlight the text that you want to appear in small caps. Right-click on the text and on the drop down menu you will see font. Click on font and a dialog box will appear. In the dialog box check/select the box that says small caps, your selection will be converted to small caps. There is also a keyboard shortcut: command, shift and k.
Our tutorial below will show you where to find this setting so that you can start typing in small caps. You can even apply small caps to existing text if you would like to convert it by making one small adjustment to the process.
Note that everything you type will use these small caps until you turn them off. You can select font options like the size or color and apply them to the small caps in the same way that you would format any other text.
Any text that is created using the small caps formatting will look like it was typed as all capital letters, such as when you hold down the Shift key, or press Caps Lock. However, these letters will be smaller than the result you would get from typing in all normal capital letters.
Yes, if you plan to be switching between lowercase letters and small uppercase letters on a regular basis, then you probably want a faster way than going through the Font group and checking the small caps checkbox.
In typography, small caps (short for \"small capitals\") are characters typeset with glyphs that resemble uppercase letters (capitals) but reduced in height and weight close to the surrounding lowercase letters or text figures.[1] This is technically not a case-transformation, but a substitution of glyphs, although the effect is often approximated by case-transformation and scaling. Small caps are used in running text as a form of emphasis that is less dominant than all uppercase text, and as a method of emphasis or distinctiveness for text alongside or instead of italics, or when boldface is inappropriate. For example, the text \"Text in small caps\" appears as .mw-parser-output span.smallcaps{font-variant:small-caps}.mw-parser-output span.smallcaps-smaller{font-size:85%}Text in small caps in small caps. Small caps can be used to draw attention to the opening phrase or line of a new section of text, or to provide an additional style in a dictionary entry where many parts must be typographically differentiated.
Typically, the height of a small capital glyph will be one ex, the same height as most lowercase characters in the font. In fonts with relatively low x-height, however, small caps may be somewhat larger than this. For example, in some Tiro Typeworks fonts, small caps glyphs are 30% larger than x-height, and 70% the height of full capitals. To differentiate between these two alternatives, the x-height form is sometimes called petite caps,[2] preserving the name \"small caps\" for the larger variant.OpenType fonts can define both forms via the \"small caps\" and the \"petite caps\" features. When the support for the petite caps feature is absent from a desktop-publishing program, x-height small caps are often substituted.
Many word processors and text-formatting systems include an option to format text in caps and small caps, which leaves uppercase letters as they are, but converts lowercase letters to small caps. How this is implemented depends on the typesetting system; some can use true small caps glyphs that are included in modern professional font sets; but less complex digital fonts do not have small-caps glyphs, so the typesetting system simply reduces the uppercase letters by a fraction (often 1.5 to 2 points less than the base scale). However, this will make the characters look somewhat out of proportion. A work-around to simulate real small capitals is to use a one-level bolder[clarification needed] version of the small caps generated by such systems, to match well with the normal weights of capitals and lowercase, especially when such small caps are extended about 5% or letter-spaced a half point or a point.
French and some British publications[citation needed] use small caps to indicate the surname by which someone with a long formal name is to be designated in the rest of a written work. An elementary example is Don Quixote de La Mancha. Similarly, they are used for those languages in which the surname comes first, such as the Romanization Mao Zedong.[citation needed]
In many versions of the Old Testament of the Bible, the word \"Lord\" is set in small caps.[5] Typically, an ordinary \"Lord\" corresponds to the use of the word Adonai in the original Hebrew, but the small caps \"Lord\" corresponds to the use of Yahweh in the original; in some versions the compound \"Lord God\" represents the Hebrew compound Adonai Yahweh.
In many books, when one part of the book mentions another part of the same book, or mentions the work as a whole, the name is set in small caps (sometimes typesetting small caps after transforming to Title Case), not italics and not roman type within quotation marks. For example, articles in The World Book Encyclopedia refer to the encyclopedia as a whole and to the encyclopedia's other articles in small caps, as in the \"Insurance\" article's direction, at one point, to \"See No-Fault Insurance\", \"No-Fault Insurance\" being another of the encyclopedia's articles.
George Eliot's 1856 essay \"Silly Novels by Lady Novelists\" is critical of Victorian novelists for using excessive small caps and italics to indicate unnecessary emphasis.[8][original research]
Research by Margaret M. Smith concluded that the use of small caps was probably popularised by Johann Froben in the early 16th century, who used them extensively from 1516.[1] Froben may have been influenced by Aldus Manutius, who used very small capitals with printing Greek and at the start of lines of italic, copying a style common in manuscripts at the time, and sometimes used these capitals to set headings in his printing; as a result these headings were in all caps, but in capitals from a smaller font than the body text type.[1] The idea caught on in France, where small capitals were used by Simon de Colines, Robert Estienne and Claude Garamond.[1][9][10] Johannes Philippus de Lignamine used small caps in the 1470s, but apparently was not copied at the time.[1][11][9]
Small capitals are not found in all font designs, as traditionally in printing they were primarily used within the body text of books and so are often not found in fonts that are not intended for this purpose, such as sans-serif types which historically were not preferred for book printing.[12] Fonts in Use reports that Gert Wunderlich's Maxima (1970), for Typoart, was \"maybe the first sans serif to feature small caps and optional oldstyle numerals across all weights.\"[13] (Some caps-only typefaces intended for printing stationery, for instance Copperplate Gothic and Bank Gothic, were intended to be used with smaller sizes serving as small capitals, and had no lower case as a result.[14][15])
Italic small capitals were historically rare. Some digital font families, sometimes digitisations of older metal type designs, still only have small caps in the regular or roman style and do not have small caps in bold or italic styles.[16][17] This is again because small caps were normally only used in body text and cutting bold and italic small caps was thought unnecessary. An isolated early appearance was in the Enschedé type foundry specimen of 1768, which featured a set cut by Joan Michaël Fleischman.[18][19] (Bold type did not appear until the nineteenth century.) In 1956, Hugh Williamson's textbook Methods of Book Design noted that \"one of the most conspicuous defects\" of contemporary book faces was that they did not generally feature italic small capitals: \"these would certainly be widely used if they were generally available\".[20] Exceptions available at the time were Linotype's Pilgrilm, Janson and their release of Monotype Garamond, and from Monotype Romulus.[20] More have appeared in the digital period, such as in Hoefler Text and FF Scala/Scala Sans.[16][21][22]
The OpenType font standard provides support for transformations from normal letters to small caps by two feature tags, smcp and c2sc.[23] A font may use the tag smcp to indicate how to transform lower-case letters to small caps, and the tag c2sc to indicate how to transform upper-case letters to small caps.
Most word processing applications, including Microsoft Word and Pages, do not automatically substitute true small caps when working with OpenType fonts that include them, instead generating scaled ones. For these applications it is therefore easier to work with fonts that have true small caps as a completely separate style, similar to bold or italic. Few free and open-source fonts have this feature; an exception is Georg Duffner's EB Garamond, in open beta.[25] LibreOffice Writer started allowing true small caps for OpenType fonts since version 5.3, they can be enabled via a syntax used in the Font Name input box, including font name, a colon, feature tag, an equals sign and feature value, for example, EB Garamond 12:smcp=1,[26][27] and version 6.2 added a dialog to switch.[28]
The Unicode Consortium has a typographical convention of using small caps for formal Unicode character names in running text. For example, the name of U+0416 Ж is conventionally shown as CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER ZHE.[32]
CSS3 can specify OpenType small caps (given the \"smcp\" feature in the font replaces glyphs with proper small caps glyphs) by using font-variant-caps: small-caps;, which is the recommended way, or font-feature-settings: 'smcp';, which is (as of May 2014) the most widely used way. If the font does not have small-cap glyphs, lowercase letters are displayed.
InDesigncan automatically change the case of selected text. Whenyou format text as small caps, InDesign automatically uses the small-cap charactersdesigned as part of the font, if available. Otherwise, InDesign synthesizes thesmall caps using scaled-down versions of the regular capital letters.The size of synthesized small caps is set in the Type Preferencesdialog box. 153554b96e
