Though the coders who created this site: https://saijogeorge.com/title-case-converter did know he difference.

Anyway, it does what it does, but don't mislabel it. It is NOT title case.
It's a good start, but I'd have to finish the job manually.

For instance, it makes:
CHAPTER XI—FINDS PRINT OF MAN’S FOOT ON THE SAND
to
Chapter Xi—Finds Print Of Man’S Foot On The Sand
Captilise sees common usage as First letter ONLY
Uppercase all letters

Besides, many programs follow the convention used in Sigil and Calibre and it would be terribly confusing to have ONE oddball
