Hi scripters

Thanks in advance

Well, it depends on what small caps you want. If it is small capitals, you can create it with:
myDoc.characterStyles.add ({name: "SC", capitalization: Capitalization.SMALL_CAPS})
Otherwise, if you want to OpenType Small Caps (which may or may not work, depending on the font you're using)
myDoc.characterStyles.add ({name: "SC", capitalization: Capitalization.CAP_TO_SMALL_CAP})
It's all in the object model viewer. You can find it by going to help-> ExtendScript Toolkit object model viewer
		   
 
            
           
 
		     
How to create small caps with MS Word 2016 for Mac?
 
			 
I've scoured the forums Microsoft and Microsoft Help to get instructions on how I can make the small caps in Word for Mac 2016, but nothing helped. I would not have same subscriber to Microsoft Office 365 was not for the fact that I needed it for a freelance assignment.
Any suggestions?
			 
Select the text. Go to the Format menu and click on fonts. In the police top dialog box where it says advanced font, click Font. In the effects section put a checkmark in front of the small caps.

I use MS without serif, helvetica and arial and I would like to have a version of small caps to the police.  Is there a way to FW to simulate
This effect?
			 
Check the size of the letters when you type. Your site is very clearly using a fake small capitals: the first letter of the key words is simply a larger font size. It's easy to say, because the thickness of the lines on the first letter is wider. Typographically, this isn't something you want to do. If you do not have a real small caps font, you are better to regularly use mixed case in the same font size.
If you want to use small caps, invest in a font to small capitals. They don't even have to be very expensive. For example, go to dafont Basic / no group serif (http://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=501), here are five free fonts that are small caps:
http://www.dafont.com/franchise.font?nb_ppp=50
http://www.dafont.com/SF-movie-poster.font?nb_ppp=50
http://www.dafont.com/Media-Gothic.font?nb_ppp=50
http://www.dafont.com/ultra-condensed-San.font?nb_ppp=50
http://www.dafont.com/Berlin-small-caps.font?nb_ppp=50
Given that there are policies of small caps at this price there, there is no reason to simulate their (which looks good, anyway).
In addition, while I'm in critical mode, I have to say that I'm not a fan of changing the size of the font on your buttons on mouseover.
		   
 
            
           
 
		     
All caps with small capitals
 
			 
We have some guidelines for third-party brand. They request headers to be all caps with the first letter CAP with small capitals for letters after the first selection. I already have a small cap grep using \u\u+. Is it possible to have the actual first letter CAP with small capitals after this one.
I tried [\u]\u\u+ and I tried to use [^ \u]\u\u+.]] I also tried [\ < = (\u)]\u\u+.] I tried to exclude them from the CAP, then apply small capitals. Then the butcher shop just started because I don't get GREP at all.
Thank you all,
Mike
			 
I think that we go right terminology som...
ID is, all uppercase is all uppercase and is applied as a decoration, rather than FORCED uppercase glyphs, applying all caps will change the appearance (but not the real character entered) of lower case to make it look like an uppercase glyph. It has no effect at all on the text as caps.
Small caps also affects only lowercase letters and is applied in the same way, so that all lowercase letters that samll caps is applied will look like in uppercase, but smaller in height. Wheter these are 'real' small caps, arrested in connection with the police, or versions across the uppercase glyphs depend on the police.
The same text may not be all in capitals and small capitals, but this really looks like the guideline is to use small caps.
So it seems to me that what you really need to do is enter in the definition of paragraph style for headings and under basic character Format and open the drop-down list box, then choose small caps or small caps OpenType (if you use an OT font with true small capitals), and aything in fact you do not type in capital letters will be in small caps.
		   
 
            
           
 
		     
How can I set small caps in the character style
 
			 
I use the opportunity that you people are online:
I'm trying to define small caps in the character style and it does not work,
It works in the paragraph style, why is this? and is it possible around it?
			 
I can see the option in the character Styles: isn't it of menu drop-down available in your dialog box?
		   
 
            
           
 
		     
Script to replace the small caps that are typed in capital letters with capital letters (A = &gt; a, B = &gt; b, etc...)
 
			 
I am looking for a way to replace the small caps that are typed in capital letters by their normal equivalents.
I have a text that contains many names that should all be set in small capitals.
In fact, they are, but because the letters are used for the first letters that they don't fit.
In short: I would like to be able to look for A, B, c... (in small capitals) and replace them with (a, b, c...) in small capitals only once.
(compare two tables?-> is this possible in indesign scripting)
			 
Hi Cramik,
Try this.
var doc = app.activeDocument,
    _char = doc.stories.everyItem().characters.everyItem().getElements();

for(var i=0;i<_char.length;i++)
{
        if(_char[i].capitalization == Capitalization.SMALL_CAPS)
        {
                _char[i].capitalization = Capitalization.CAP_TO_SMALL_CAP;
            }
    }

Kind regards

Copy and pasting of text does not not with Styles
 
			 
I have an InDesign document with more than 300 pages of text that I need to copy and paste into a new document. The text has several different fonts (regular italic, small caps), all in various sizes and is formatted with character and paragraph styles. The small caps, for example, is at 15, but I want to make 14pt in my new document. So, I changed the style in the core document and the change resulted, but when I copy and paste the original settings in the new document, paste, not those revised (i.e. the new style is 14pts, but the text copy even more like 15).
Anyone know what is happening? I certainly don't want to manually change the size in points and on all the different styles on all these pages.

When you move the style of text in a document to a document is the destination file that controls the style definitions, not the source.
		   
 
            
           
 
		     
Why is InDesign uses fake small caps instead of the real ones included in the police?
 
			 
I tried to use the small caps Hoefler Text, I did by pressing the small caps button. Rather than use of true small capitals (which should be in proportion to the capitals), InDesign creates fake small caps by reducing the capitals (which is horribly ugly). I know that Hoefler Text includes real small caps because I can see them in the glyphs palette. How can I get InDesign to use true small capitals instead of creating the fake ones?
			 
Just checked the font file. "Hoefler Text" comes courtesy of Mac OS X, preinstalled with your system. It is an OpenType font with outline TrueType (actually a collection of four different styles in a single file), and typographic functions, including small caps charrington42 noticed in the glyphs Panel, are guided not by the OpenType features but by AAT Apple features.
InDesign cannot use the features AAT; Only software specific Apple can. TextEdit, for example, real small capitals peut access:

You may submit "Please support AAT" Adobe using the feature request form - I don't see anything against it. Or maybe just the fact that it is only applicable to a small amount of fonts and Mac OS X only.

Small caps works do not all of a sudden
 
			 
Hello
I have problems with a typeface in a pamphlet that I'm working on.  Earlier the saved file versions are fine, but I'm curious as to why all of a sudden, my "small caps" are not working in two character Styles and activating / disabling the option outside of the character Styles.  It only occurs with the font I want to use: Futura Std.  If I complete with Gill without, or something, it seems to work very well then.  What could cause this, and why it would work at the earliest versions recorded, but not my new packaged version?  It works with my plain "Futura", but not my OpenTypeface "Futura Std." thoughts?

The signatures and small caps in MS Word
 
			 
How can I access signatures and small caps for Adobe Garamond (or any other font opentype with these features built into the font file) using MS Office, including Word?  Signatures do not activate when checking 'conditional ligatures' and the small caps that appear when checking 'small caps' are not 'real' small capitals - they are just poor Word manufacturing.

Thank you!
			 
You must use the option "Insert a symbol", select the subset of the "private use area" and insert one by one.
It would be wonderful if MS Word provided a better user experience when you work with OpenType features, but this isn't something of that the police are in control.

Hello
1. If your charStyles only has names?
2. maybe disable this line:
app.findTextPreferences.fontStyle = itals [i]
so myFind table will match smallCaps all.
Now to browse and use the switch... case loop
I mean:
//...
switch (myFind[j].fontStyle) {
    case "Italic":
    case "Light Italic":
    case "LightItalic":
    case "Book Italic":
    case "Coursive":
          myFind[j].appliedCharacterStyle = myCStyle7;
          break;
    default:
          myFind[j].appliedCharacterStyle = myCStyle6;
          break;
    }
//...

Small caps ePub issue
 
			 
I'm working on placing the text in the ePub format and continue to operate in the same question.
I want the title of the chapter to use small caps.  In InDesign, I have it look exactly the way I wish that it - '' Chapter One '' appearing with small capitals.
I highlighted the expression '' Chapter One '' and applied a paragraph style that has the following characteristics:
[no paragraph style] next [style]-Times New Roman-size: 24pt + needlepoint
When I export to ePub to display the document in Adobe Digital Editions these changes are not present.  I have tried about everything the application of styles of characters and nested styles, but nothing works.  I want these appearances of small cap to work in versions ePub as well.
Any thoughts on why it doesn't work?
Any help is very appreciated.  Scouring the internet for some time didn't turn upward all the advice.
Thanks in advance.
			 
Easy workaround solution. Map of H1 style and define H1 with small capitals in the CSS.
But... I recalled that ADE is old enough and desperately needing an update. I would check the EPUB using something else. Even a web browser can be better.
