I'm afraid that wouldn't help with Adobe-based readers. As far as I know, they just ignore "font-variant". The trick to make them work involves embedding and forcing a font that has only small-caps, and using it as if it were a normal font.

If those readers behaved as intended (as intended, that is, by the spec and the users), they would obey "font-variant" and use real small-caps if available or fake them otherwise.
