Small caps — where lowercase letters are replaced with smaller versions of capital letters — is a classic typographic style, traditionally used for headings and stylistic emphasis in print design.
This tool converts your text into genuine Unicode small-capital characters, so the effect works as plain text anywhere, not just in software with a dedicated small-caps font feature.
How it works
Enter your text. The tool maps each letter to its corresponding Unicode small capital character. A couple of letters (Q and X) don't have a true small-capital form in Unicode and are left unchanged.

Examples
Styling a heading
"Hi" converts to "ʜɪ" — genuine Unicode small-capital characters.
Who should use it
- Styling a heading or title in a bio or profile.
- Adding typographic emphasis to short text.
Industry applications
- Content creation and social media
- Typography and design
Advantages
- Produces genuine Unicode characters that work as plain text anywhere.
- Classic, professional-looking typographic style.
Limitations
- Q and X lack true small-capital Unicode forms and remain unchanged.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Expecting a perfect small-capital substitute for every letter, when Q and X don't have one in Unicode.
- Using it for long-form content where the novelty styling reduces readability.
Best practices
- Reserve small caps styling for short headings or emphasis, matching its traditional typographic use, rather than long body text.
Tips
- Use small caps for short headings or names rather than full sentences — it's traditionally an emphasis style, not a body-text style.
