Change Case

The instructions below show how to use menus or keyboard shortcuts to issue an immediate command that will change the case of text that has already been typed. Once the case is changed, there is no record of the command and no impact on text typed after changing the case. It is just as if the character had originally been typed in the case currently displayed.

Nota Bene also provides an option to issue an embedded command that will display and print text as all uppercase, all lowercase, all small caps or small caps and uppercase with small caps, while retaining the information about how the text was typed. For more information, see Font Settings or Character Case or Character Case commands.
