Small Caps Generator

A small caps generator turns letters into Unicode small capitals, one character each, on the baseline. The small text page mixes those with superscript and subscript, which sit above or below the line. This page does not. Q becomes ǫ and X stays x, because this map has no small capital for either letter.

How do I paste small caps?

  1. Type the word

    Caps is the sample, four letters. Hello and hello become the same small capitals, because the map folds case.

  2. Copy Petite Caps first

    ᴄᴀᴘꜱ is 4 characters. Under Caps is ᴄ̲ᴀ̲ᴘ̲ꜱ̲ (8). Caps Stars is ★ ᴄᴀᴘꜱ ★ (8).

  3. Read Q and X before you publish

    Qx becomes ǫx. If that looks wrong for the word, spell around Q and X or move the word to bold text.

The superscript and subscript cards do not appear here.

The last two rows are comparisons, not cards above. If ꜱ (U+A731) or ꜰ (U+A730) shows as a box, that font has no Latin Extended-D small capital. ᴀ and ᴘ are older Phonetic Extensions and usually survive. Flags is the check word: ꜰʟᴀɢꜱ.

Which letters are not real small capitals?

Qx in Petite Caps is ǫx. Q is ǫ, U+01EB LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH OGONEK, a letter used for a vowel in some Latin orthographies. It is not a small capital Q. Unicode encoded a small capital Q later, at U+A7AF in Unicode 13.0 (2020). This map does not call that character. X has no replacement in the map, so it stays x.

Case folds too. ʜᴇʟʟᴏ and ʜᴇʟʟᴏ are the same string. A typeset small-caps font would keep the capital larger than the small caps. Unicode phonetic letters cannot do that. If the word needs a real capital, set it in plain text and put only the rest of the word through Petite Caps.

Why do Q and X look wrong?
