"You could also make text appear to be using small caps, but you kind of have to trick it into doing it. There's no actual code for small caps. And, so the way to do that and let's say that we want this whole second paragraph to be small caps. So, the way we would do that we would just reduce the font size down to one. And, then we'd actually have to type this all out in caps. Now, I'm not going to do this. I'm just going to type one. One line. And, copy and paste it a couple times. And, then close off the font. And, in comparison I'm going to make the third paragraph all caps without reducing the font size. So, it will just look like it's all caps. So, save that. Go over here. We see this looks like it's actually in a small caps font. This is in all caps. So, the trick was just reducing the font size and making it all caps so it looks like it's using small caps."
