The other two, letter-spacing and word-spacing, are not in the specifications either.
Oh, I didn't realize that -- thanks for the explanation.

Small-caps is a totally other question. That is a real issue/fault and not true for all (but most...) readers. They can be emulated though. The best results are obtained by embedding a smallcaps font.
And if one doesn't have a smallcaps font, then another way to fake it would be to just set the entire line in ALLCAPS, and then run a span across each word except for the first letter and resize the font size down 75% or something. Very kludgy, of course, but I guess that would/should work if for some reason one really "needed" smallcaps somewhere.
