You can, I've been doing this for a couple of years with all my Sonys. However, it's not quite as straightforward because you cannot use the @font-face {... font-variant: small-caps; ...} option, at least not on any existing Sonys.

What you can do is, if you only have a single smallcaps font (e.g. Fontin SmallCaps), define the smallcaps font in your Sony css file something like

@font-face {font-family: "SCfont"; src: url(res:///... .../fonts/Fontin-SmallCaps.ttf)}

If you can find a smallcaps font with all 4 variants (reg, italic, bold, boldit) you can setup 4 @font-faces in the normal way.


In addition, you also have to do either one or the other of the following:

1. find the relevant css style in each epub's css file and change it from
   .scname {font-variant: small-caps} to
   .scname {font-family: "SCfont"} (matching the label in your @font-face)
2. add an extra line into your Sony css file something like
   

   small, .smallcaps, .smallcaps1, .smallcaps2, .small-caps, .sc, .fsc, .smallCaps, .Smallcaps, .SmallCaps {
       font-family: "SCfont", serif;
       font-variant: normal}

Option 1 - will always work, but is tedious because you would have to change every epub where you want smallcaps.

Option 2 - can be set once in your Sony css file(s) but means you need guesswork to try and catch every .scname the epub creators may decide to use -- but you'll probably never guess them all It works perfectly if you are creating your own html file to convert to epub.
