Spanish "VERSALITAS"

Hello All,

I have to write an article using Spanish-style formatting in the footnotes. What is wanted is the author's family or surname in so-called "versalitas", that is to say a larger cap followed by smaller caps (upper case there in the UK). Does anyone know how this is done? Many thanks, John

Answer
Type the name in caps and lower case as usual and apply the Small Caps property to the text. You can do this through the Font dialog or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+K. If the entire name should be larger than the rest of the text, then you may need to increase the font size until the small caps are the size of the regular caps in the rest of the text. In that case it would probably be worthwhile to create a character style to incorporate the small caps and larger font size so it could be applied with one click (or assign a keyboard shortcut to the style).
