Applying small caps selectively, but automatically

Does anyone know if there's any automated way of formatting as small caps only strings of full caps consisting of two or more characters? So, "A. B. Jones" would remain full caps/lower-case, but AJ or ABJ would be converted into small caps?

Problem with Small Caps

I have a problem with small caps when using Times New Roman and Helvetica, but not when using Adobe Garamond Pro, and would like to find out why.
I generate the small caps within InDesign by the "TT" box in the Control Window. Adobe Garamond comes up with beautiful small caps that blend in with the surrounding text. When I do the same with Helvetica, the small caps, especially if they have normal caps amongst them, are quite inelegant looking because of different letter widths.
So I did some experiments with half a dozen other serif and sans-serif fonts and none of them were as elegant as Adobe Garamond Pro. For a sample of what I mean, download:
http://www.mediafire.com/?z5fm0zndmzm
which compares three fonts: Adobe Garmond, Heletica, and Times New Roman.
Unfortunately, I did not pick up this problem until I received my first proof from the printers, and now I will have to change all the Helvetica small caps to normal caps, as I can see no other way of overcoming this inelegancy.
I checked in New Scientist magazine (it uses a serif and sans-serif font throughout, and what I thought I remembered as small caps to begin their stories) to see what they do, but they actually use caps instead of small-caps at the beginning of stories.
Three questions:
Q1: Is the way I generate small caps the correct way?
Q2: Is there something wrong with my Helvetica and Times New Roman fonts?
Q3: Could it be that only Adobe Garamond has an internal, properly designed small caps?
I have checked the attributes of the fonts: Garamond is Open Type Postscript, Helvetica is PostScript Type 1 , and Times New Roman is TrueType.
Any comments most appreciated.

Thanks for the hints. I tried Scott's method and it works with a bit of extra adjustment. The settings I obtained for 12 point Helvetica were:
Horizontal and vertical scaling: 70.5%;
Stroke: 0.1 pt
Tracking: +25 em
Baseline shift: +0.1 pt
The steps to obtain small-caps 12 pt Helvetica are:
Step 1: Type text as normal.
Step 2: Select only the lower-case text you want to convert to small caps. i.e if what is to become small caps already has a capital (such as a place name) do not apply the settings to the capitals, unless that's the effect you want.
Step 3: Apply the above settings manually or via or Character Style.
Problem 1: How do I rid my Character Style of the font size so that only the scaling factors remain? As it is, if I want to apply small-caps to a different font size than the one I have set up, I have to manually change the font size after applying the style.
Problem 2: The scaling factors do not appear to work for changes in font size. When I used 24 pt and applied the above settings, the small-caps were too thin. The method only really works for a particular size, which in reality is all you would normally require.

Office 2013 RTM: STILL no true small caps: WHY? WHY? WHY?

I have just un-installed the Office 2013 Preview, and installed the Office 2013 RTM 60-day trial.
I had hoped that between the two versions, the issue of missing true small caps in Word had been addressed. But no. Whilst Word 2013 supports OpenType ligatures and OpenType stylistic sets and OpenType old-style numbers and and and, it STILL DOES NOT SUPPORT
TRUE SMALL CAPS. Yes, it has a small caps function, but this just reduces the size of the font, instead of using the dedicated small caps letters included in a lot of OpenType fonts. What's the difference? The difference is that with true small caps, the stroke
width of upper case, lower case and small caps letters match, whereas in the cheapy, flimsy, yucky version that Office only offers, the small caps letters are thinner than the normal letters of that font - obviously so, as they are merely shrunken.
Try it for yourself. Type something like "AaMmXx" in an OpenType font with small caps, say, Calibri or Gabriola, at, say, 24pt, in Word 2013 and in Publisher 2013, and apply small caps in each, and print them. Compare the stroke widths. See what I mean?
Publisher does true small caps. Word doesn't.
So, why, Microsoft, why, oh why, oh why, when other typographical features (ligatures, stylistic sets, etc. etc. & so 4th) are supported in Word 2013, are small caps not? I just don't understand it. Why? Are small caps held to be something that only
professional typesetters should be allowed to use with typesetting programs like Publisher, whereas ordinary folk with Word shouldn't? Or is it trick to boost sales of Puiblisher? Or did no-one think about it? What is it? Because it's very annoying!

Well, in the second place, inserting characters via Insert Symbol is a pain in the posterior, and, of course, the spell checker doesn't recognise them. But in the first place, that only works if the font author has been thoughtful enough to give the small
caps glyphs Unicode code points, say, in the Private Use Area (like in Calluna). Normally, however, they don't - the small caps glyphs are only accessible via a small caps function, as lacking in Word. Excel is worse - apparently, Microsoft think that OpenType
advanced features ought not to be used in spreadsheets.
So having found fonts with small caps, the only way to use them is to use a font program either to assign the small caps glyphs to PUA code points, or to put them in a separate font (which at least means that other applications and spell checkers can use
them).

Small Cap Fonts

I am trying to figure out how to use a small cap font when creating a PDF document manually... for example:
7 0 obj
<<
/Type/Font
/Name /T5
/BaseFont/Helvetica,SmallCap
/Subtype/Type1
/Encoding /WinAnsiEncoding
>>
endobj
I've tried many different variations around this basic structure, and I have tried including a fontDescriptor
7 0 obj
<<
/Type/FontDescriptor
/Flags 131104 %NonSymbolic & Small Caps
endobj
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Corey

These are either separate fonts or typesetting effects.

>It seems that you are telling me that I would need to embed a Helvetica small caps font - but I don't know where to get it or how to embed it.
It's not clear whether such a thing even exists. Certainly, no such
font is commonly found, nor an Arial small caps.
If you had the font, the PDF Reference tells you how to embed it,
though this is a major project (people often find the scope of the PDF
generation project multiplies by 10 at this point).

>I have adobe
Big company, Adobe. What of their software do you have?
> I can print a Word document with small cap text to a pdf, and it works fine, but looking the file, I can't tell where it has gotten the font information.
Since you almost certainly don't have the font, this leaves us with
typographic effect. Just use capital letters in the regular font, but
use them smaller. This wouldn't satisfy a typographer, but if you are
happy with what Word does, go for it.
Use font metrics to determine the ascent of nondescending lower case
and upper case letters in your target font, and scale accordingly (so
your upper case is the same height as a lower case character).
> when I select to use small caps on a font in MS Word, do I have a specific small cap font installed, or is word doing its magic with the base font and different sizes?
Word is doing some simple magic. Even if you purchased and installed a
small caps font, Word would have no way to use it unless you selected
the font: Windows has no style linking beyond bold and italics.
Windows will in fact fake missing bold and italic, which is considered
in typographical terms truly evil.

Small Caps ePub Issue

I am working on putting text into the ePub format and keep running into the same issue.
I want the title of the chapter to utilize Small Caps. Within InDesign I've got it look exactly the way I wish for it to - "Chapter One" appearing with small caps.
I've Highlighted the phrase "Chapter One" and applied a paragraph style that has the following features:
[no paragraph style] + next [same style] + Times New Roman + size: 24 pt + small point
When I export to ePub to view the document in Adobe Digital Editions these changes are not present. I've tried just about everything from applying character styles and nested styles, but nothing is working. I'd like these Small Cap appearances to work in the ePub versions as well.
Any thoughts on why this is not working?
Any help is much appreciated. Scouring the internet for a while has not turned up any advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi- I have a problem with small caps and epub export too, in InD 5.0.
I defined a style with a nested stye that applies small caps for the first four words. I see this definition in the CSS output by InD:
span.no-style-override-2 {
font-variant: small-caps;
I do not see this style applied in any of the content. If I manually code it in:
<p class="first-graph" xml:lang="en-us"><span class="no-style-override-2">Eric and Kate, young</span> ....
it is correctly displayed. I'd like to get InDesign to export it correctly. I notice the same behavior in 5.5.
What can I do to have my nested style properly marked up in the epub export?
Thanks.

Small Caps in FCP?

Anyone know how to use small caps in text in FCP? I tried copy and paste from Word and Pages but it didn't work.

Interesting question, JJ. Altho you worded your question as "how to use small caps..." I'm guessing you're asking how to create small caps in FCP. I don't think you can.
I just played a bit with the various FCP text generators and I don't see a small caps option. An outside app like Word creates small caps, but Borris doesn't import Word docs. Borris imports TextEdit rtf files, but TextEdit doesn't do small caps.
Depending on the end result you want, you might need to create your text image in a program like Photoshop then import that file into FCP and add motion as needed.
With all the ways to play with text using the tools provided by FCP, I've never considered small caps. But, now that you bring it up, I'd also be interested in finding out if there's a simple method to create that style in FCP.

hi paholland
The order is OS dependant, and AFAIK there is no way to influence the order.
However, you can limit which certificates are used by implementing certificate match criteria in the profile:

How do I change caps of an OpenType font to small caps in my InDesign cc document?

Greetings, Community. It would be great if I could discover how to change caps of an OpenType font to small caps in my InDesign cc document. That's the simple question.
To be more exact, I have an 18-page play that contains stage directions in caps in parentheses, which I would like to change to small caps. The font I'm using is an OpenType, Minion Pro, with small caps.
Another thing is, I'd ideally like to be able to do that without changing all caps in the document, and also, to not have to convert the caps to lower case in order to do it.
My source document (which I Placed in my InDesign document) is Microsoft Word 2011 for Mac.
I did go to Microsoft to find out how to do it in Word, but could only find a solution for Word for Windows.
I did try their solution anyhow (a macro) but it didn't work.
     Thanks a lot. It's great being in InDesign even though I had my good years with QuarkXpress, which eventually became impossible for me.

Small caps - is there a way to change size ratio of lower to upper case?

I am using Adobe InDesign CS4 and one problem I've had is that when I select Small Caps on the character styles panel, lower case characters are about 60% the size of upper case characters. I'd like this to be more around 80% in my document.
I don't see a way to do this, so I'm having to avoid using Small Caps and am having to select various portions of each word and set them to different sizes.
Is there a setting I am missing for Small Caps that would save me this trouble? My typeface is Minion so I may also see if there's a variant available that uses well-crafted small caps.
Tim

Dave,
>.. adjust the size of the "lowercase" characters by using a GREP style
Yes ... and no.
It doesn't have to be an extremely complicated GREP style. You mention Unicode ranges, but it's not even necessary. You could try
>[a-z]
to select all lowercase characters, but it leaves out accented ones. Now specifying ranges for these doesn't work very good (to put it mildly), because they do not appear consecutively in the Unicode set.
Fortunately, GREP has a wildcard
>\l
for "lowercase", and this matches
i every
lowercase character (even Greek and Russian ones). It's equal to the POSIX expression
>[[:lower:]]
As this seems to work just the way you want, then why the "No"? The GREP style will be applied to
i all
lowercase characters in the paragraph, not just to the words you wanted.
[Warning: Dirty trick follows. Do Not Copy Unless Forced To.]
Of course you can
i force
the GREP style pick up 'unique' words by making them unique somehow. If you insert an invisible character
i before
and
i after
the words you want to mark -- in the case at hand, the ones you want to small-capitalize --, you can include the invisible characters in the GREP style. For example, by specifying
>~-\l+~-
you can "mark" words by inserting a soft hyphen before and after certain words. (This example also presumes only lowercase characters inbetween.) You don't have to use the soft hyphen, there are a couple more markers you could (ab)use. I think I'll leave it up to your imagination to wonder where it could possibly go wrong.

Why, o why, does it keep going to small caps?

Hello all. When I do a find/replace for imported text to a style sheet, or if I apply a style sheet onto imported text, it keeps applying the style with small caps. The imported text doesn't have small caps. The style sheet doesn't have small caps. I know I can go back and clear overrides, but what the hell?

With nothing selected in the document, check your character style selection (if you have any defined) and then check your character settings. It sounds like you have a local override set by default in the document.
So, whenever you are placing or typeing text, it is acquiring that default override.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute">
    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            protected function name_changeHandler(event:Event):void {
                var firstName:String = fName.text.toLowerCase();
                var lastName:String = lName.text.toLowerCase();
                fullName.text = firstName + lastName;
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:Label x="156" y="74" text="first"/>
    <mx:TextInput x="199" y="72" id="fName" change="name_changeHandler(event)"/>
    <mx:Label x="156" y="104" text="last"/>
    <mx:TextInput x="199" y="102" id="lName" change="name_changeHandler(event)"/>
    <mx:Text x="199" y="132" text="Text" id="fullName"/>
</mx:Application>
I think this does what you were asking for.

Small caps not displaying correctly in the ePub file

Hello All,
I am using cs5.5 to generate ePub file, and I found that small caps contents not displaying correctly in the generated ePub file even the CSS looks correct. Please check and confirm, if anyone faced this issue? Also other formatting components are looks fine in the ePub file.
Thanks,
Praveen

@Jongware/Bob, thanks for your responses, I checked the ePub output using 'Adobe Digital Editions', and getting the same issue in 'Calibre', but in 'Sigil', it looks fine.
In CSS it has been declared like below:
span.SmallCaps {
font-variant : small-caps;
Here 'SmallCaps' is the character style applied for the 'small caps' contents.
Thanks,
Praveen

Small caps in running heads - mixed case problem

My running head is set to be small caps, and it picks up mixed-case text from the document. I want the head to be all 'lower case' small caps (or 'upper case', unless that really means ordinary caps) but can see no way to achieve this. Instead I get 'mixed case' small caps, if that makes any sense. If I select the head on the master page and then Type | Change Case, this has no effect on the appearance either on the master or the generated heads. How do I achieve uniform small caps where the source text for the running head is mixed-case? If small .indd attachments were allowed I would have attached one, but it got rejected despite not being llisted as a forbidden type.

A few ways to do this:
a script: http://jsid.blogspot.com/2005/09/script-of-day-changing-case-again.html
or in your paragraph styles use OT small caps (assuming you're using an OT font)
I also set up a keyboard shortcut, to Type > Change Case > lowercase
you could probably do it with GREP too...

Applying small caps selectively, but automatically
