# Too latin, didn't read

# Sorry, TJ
People of the internet,

I would like to create a new font that is exactly the same as Rockwell, but only capital letters (ie the lower case letters become the same as uppercase letters, etc). Do you have any idea how I might manage this?

# Or if using Photoshop, use Small Caps

Edit : Similar function in MS Word and various other apps too.

# I want Samurize to display the name of the month in all capitals.
And I think doing it this way will be easier than trying to find where it gets month names from and changing each from May to MAY and so on.

Cheers though, I didn't know that small caps thing.

# with a font editing application.
I don't think there are any freeware versions about.

Then you would delete the lowercase characters, and copy the uppercase characters to their places.

I think that MS-WIndows TrueType fonts also have some sort of internal linking capability, so that you could also delete the lower case, and then link to the uppercase -- this might alleviate kerning issues, but I am not certain.

# I thought this may be the case, cheers. Do you know of any good font editers?

# try this one
www.high-logic.com/fontcreator.html -- this is the least expensive, I think. Crazy things can get into the hundreds

# there's plenty of free font editors!
"gpl font editor" is a good google term
