Change capitalization styles

  1. Select the characters or type objects you want to change.
  2. Choose one of the following in the Type > Change Case submenu:
    UPPERCASE
    to change all characters to uppercase.
    Note: The UPPERCASE command causes discretionary ligatures to revert to normal text. This also occurs with the Title Case and Sentence Case commands when a discretionary ligature appears at the beginning of a word.

    lowercase
    to change all characters to lowercase.

    Title Case
    to capitalize the first letter of each word.

    Sentence Case
    to capitalize the first letter of each sentence.
    Note: The Sentence Case command assumes that the period (.), exclamation point (!), and question mark (?) characters mark the ends of sentences. Applying Sentence Case may cause unexpected case changes when these characters are used in other ways, as in abbreviations, filenames, or URLs. In addition, proper names may become lowercase.
    If you’re using an OpenType font, you may want to take advantage of All Caps formatting to create more elegant type.
