About Small Caps Text

Small caps text uses Unicode small capital letters to create a distinctive typographic style where lowercase letters appear as smaller versions of capital letters. This effect originated in traditional typography, where small caps were used for acronyms, headers, and stylistic emphasis. The Unicode standard includes these characters, making them accessible for digital use without requiring special fonts.

Small caps provide a sophisticated, professional appearance that's less aggressive than full capitals but more prominent than lowercase. They're particularly popular in design, branding, captions, and social media where they add elegance and readability. Since these are actual Unicode characters rather than CSS styling, they work universally across all platforms and maintain their appearance when copied to any application that supports Unicode text.
