Kevin, "\caps" and "\smallCaps" should work with any font since they simply iterate through the string and reduce the font size by a scaling factor -2 for all characters except those already in upper-case. The only function, related to this conversation thread, that cares about the actual font

Hi Shane, \version "2.19.11" Even with \smallCaps (how did I miss that!?!!?) the test stays the same. Bold and Large are both working but not the small caps. Craig On Fri Jan 16 2015 at 4:39:22 PM Shane Brandes wrote: > Which version are you using? and is it not \smallcaps that you need to >

Which version are you using? and is it not \smallcaps that you need to issue? Also does the font actually have small caps natively? Shane On Fri, Jan 16, 2015 at 12:54 AM, Craig Dabelstein wrote: > Hi List, > > Can anyone tell me why I can't get small caps working with this code? > > Many thanks
