If you want to reproduce "SmallCaps" support, e.g., SMALLCAPS, here's a class you can add to a project.

I threw this together with pretty limited understanding of python, but it's working well for me in an ebook of a Schiller play where all the names of the parts are in smallcaps. Let me know if I've done anything crazy here?

Thanks!

Steve

class SmallCap(Span):

tagname = "SmallCap"
def __init__(self, text=None):

Span.__init__(self,"")
SmallCap.append(self,text)

def append(self,content):

for i in range(len(content)+1):

if content[i-1:i].islower():

Span.append(self,Span(content[i-1:i].upper(),fontsize=70))

else:

Span.append(self,Span(content[i-1:i],fontsize=100))
