@sc{text}: The Small Caps Font ¶Use the ‘@sc’ command to set text in A SMALL CAPS FONT (where possible). Write the text you want to be in small caps between braces in lowercase, like this:
Richard @sc{Stallman} a commencé le projet GNU.
This produces:
Richard STALLMAN a commencé le projet GNU.
As shown here, we recommend reserving @sc for special cases
where you want typographic small caps; family names are one such,
especially in languages other than English, though there are no
hard-and-fast rules about such things.
TeX typesets any uppercase letters between the braces of an
@sc command in full-size capitals; only lowercase letters are
printed in the small caps font. In the Info output, the argument to
@sc is printed in all uppercase. In HTML, the argument is
uppercased and the output marked with the <small> tag to reduce
the font size, since HTML cannot easily represent true small caps.
In LaTeX, a command setting small caps fonts is output.
Overall, we recommend using standard upper- and lowercase letters wherever possible.
