How to convert capital letters to non-capital letters?

Does anyone know how to do this? Currently, I have a small Widget in Dashboard that I found that does this perfectly, however, its too annoying to have to convert it and then copy & paste it into a Text application (ie. Page or Word).
I was hoping, no let me rephrase, dreaming that Pages could do so, but I don't think it does; so I was hoping someone can tell me if they know of any programs that I can use that does just that.
Some great features that I would like, but not necessary, is:
1) that it allows you to export directly into any applicaiton (ie, Pages or Word)
2) the ability to convert from non-capital letters (sentences, paragraphs and even pages in bulk) to capital letters.
Anyone? I would appreciate any feedback, good or bad. Thanks!

Hi DennisG
This initially seemed odd to me too.
I think it is because Pages retains the original Unicode character and regards capitalization as a formatting change - not a change to the character code itself. To illustrate, type the sentence "Dinner is booked for Dennis and Ian on Friday afternoon at 1pm." into Pages. You will notice that as you toggle between All Caps and None for the Capitalization setting, the appropriate case is preserved for things like proper nouns and the start of the sentence. Not a big deal for one sentence but imagine you had hundreds or thousands of sentences that you wanted in the same style and wished to experiment with presenting them in capitals!
Pages isn't alone in doing this. Microsoft Word on Windows behaves the same way if you select the All caps check box in the Font dialog. Word provides a separate Change Case ... menu option that seems to permanently convert the actual characters instead of their appearance.
I think it would be useful for Pages to have a similar feature and suggest that Vito submits feedback in the normal manner.

  • Script to replace small caps that are typed as capital letters with non-capital letters (A = a, B = b, etc...)

    I'm looking for a way to replace small caps that are typed as capitals by their normal equivalent.
    I've got a text that contains a lot of names which should all be set in small caps.
    In fact they are, but because capital letters are used for first letters they don't scale.
    Short: I would like to be able to look for A, B, C... (in small caps) and replace them with (a, b, c...) in small caps in one go.
    (compare two arrays?? -> is this possible in indesign scripting)

    Hi,
    Actually, it works only with OpenType fonts and - in this case - can be managed by UI find...change feature.
    With other type of font we need a real change of contents (another keyboard hit).
    It could be done with this code (activeDocument is a target):
    -- works for Open Type as well --
    // For Latin Basic (ASCII from 65 to 90)
    // changes a "cap" letter to a "small" letter
    // if Capitalization.SMALL_CAPS is applied to
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = null;
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "\\u";
    app.findGrepPreferences.capitalization = Capitalization.SMALL_CAPS;
    var
      mSTART = 65, // ASCII number for "A"
      Mstart = 97, // ASCII number for "a"
      mDiff = 0,
      mTarget = app.activeDocument,
      mFound = mTarget.findGrep(),
      len = mFound.length, cString;
    while (len-->0) {
      cString = mFound[len].contents;
      mDiff = cString.charCodeAt(0) - mSTART;
      if (mDiff > -1 && mDiff < 26)
      mFound[len].contents = String.fromCharCode( Mstart + mDiff );
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.findGrepPreferences = null;

  • How to convert editable pdf into non-editable version for printing option only without setting up passwards?

    I am using IOS system with pdf preview functions. I try to convert editable pdf file into read only for others to print without access to edit the file.
    The only way I can do now is to convert to jpeg for each page and convert back to pdf then combine all pages together. It takes a lot of time in this case.
    Can anyone tell me how to do the conversion without setting up passwards for protection?
    Thank you very much!

    First of all, don't use all CAPS as it means shouting.
    Second, your question is completely off-topic for this forum which discusses Microsoft Office Outlook.
    Third, this is a peer-to-peer forum, don't count on anyone calling you. If you want dedicated support from Microsoft, contact Microsoft Support directly.
    Anyway, you can insert the picture in to OneNote and then have OneNote convert it into text. This usually isn't very accurate for scans though.
    A better solution would be to use a application which is dedicated to OCR. There are various out there. I suggest you try their demo versions to find out which works best with your handwriting.

  • How to convert US Keyboard to write Norwegian letters (æ ø å)?

    A friend bought a MacBook Air in New York recently. The trouble is that we have 29 letters in our Norwegian alphabet, "æ ø å" in addition to the english ones. Is there any way to code the keyboard to write those Norwegian letters?
    Grateful for all help:)

    Thanks, I am at least getting the swedish letters that way, but they are a bit different from the Norwegian ones. The norwegian "æ" becomes swedish "ä" and the norwgian "ø" becomes swedish "ö" which both are pronounced the same and understood also in Norway, but I can´t find the "å" that way.
    By hitting the opt+1 I can get the copyright sign ©, and opt+2 writes ™ for example. Is there a way to code the options key to bring up those three norwegian letters?
    Thanks again:)

  • Very Urgent--- How to Convert Non Valuated stk into Valuated

    Dear GURU'S
    Actually for a material A when i see the stock in MM03 in accounting tab i see less stock then when i see in MMBE
    i.e in MMBE if i select Material A and Plant B(Which is depo in my case) i see stock as 39
    but for same material MAterial A and Plant B ,if i see in MM03 --in accounting tab i m able to see less stock i.e only 1
    ============================================
    Well the problem is In MM03 I cud see only valuated stk i.e qty as 1
    And in MMBE for a partiocular material for a particular plant the stock was 39
    i.e Here i am getting Valuated + Non valuated stock
    i.e i am getting difference of 25
    =====>>>
    To get into the root cause
    I have gone to MB5B where i can get all the transaction that has been done on this material with movement type also i got the intial stock ,Goods recpt ,Goods  issu and total stock
    No for a particular material
    In MB5B it is showing
    Stock on 01.01.2005    =  38
    receipts total               = 238
    Issues total                  =237
    Stock as on 18.02.2008 = 39(which is equal to Stock in MMBE)
    =============>This is for valuated +Non valuated stock
    Where as if i want to see only valuated stock it was showing
    receipts total      = 238
    Issues total         =237
    Stock as on 18.02.2008 =1  (which is equal to stock in acctg view in MM03)
    ====================>This is only for Valuated Stock
    ======================================
    Now how to solve this :
    The initial qty(38) which has been posted it was at the begining that is at the start of the project
    And the people who have posted it ,it was non valuated
    that is the reason it is showing difference in MM03 and MMBE
    First thing
    How can i see on which date this initial stock has been posted
    Second Query
    How to convert this non valuated stock into Valuated stock
    So that the quantity in MMBE and MM03 gets matched
    Willl award 10 Points if my problem gets solved
    THANKZ IN ADVANCE

  • After Cloning from RAC to non-RAC, how can convert PCP to Non PCP?

    After Cloning 11i E-bussiness suit from RAC to non-RAC, how can convert PCP to Non PCP?

    Hi Hussein
    Please clear me if am wrong.
    1.Say my applications release is 11.5.10.2 with RAC and PCP enabled and cloning to multi node[Apps on one node and db on one side] and disable PCP
    1.I wil clone my db to db node.
    2.Copy the applications file system to target node and run adcfgclone and provide the values accordingly and it would complete successfully.
    Now i have multi node target system.
    To disable PCP
    1.do i need to disable :Change the site level system profile 'Concurrent:GSM_Enabled' to have a value of 'Y' and make it 'N'.[because GSM is enabled by default after 11.5.7 ]. If the profile option is SET Y will be get any errors while bringing up CM.
    2.As per previous note you have given, APPLDCP is set to ON by default when GSM is enabled [Considering i m above the file version [afpcsq.lpc ] ]
    and also is GSM neccessary for single node applications.
    In this case will changing the profile value is enough to disable the PCP or do i need to change APPLDCP also.
