Publisher 2 renders Small Caps' first letters too thick.

See "SELECTED POEMS" header rendering on this screen grab and notice letters "S" and "P" are rendered too thick for a proper small cap variant. Please advise.t.

Hi @eworkflow,

For 'effective' small caps you need to use a font that contains 'true-drawn' small caps as designed by the typeface designer or foundry that match the weight, width and spacing of the rest of the characters. Applying small caps via the character panel for a font that doesn't include 'true-drawn' small caps as part of the character set results in 'fake-drawn' small caps being generated which is what you are seeing in your example'...

A quick look through the glyph browser will show whether or not the font in question contains 'true-drawn' small caps.

Thank you for this simple guide. My typographical limitation showed here but, at least, I rejected the visual result of a faux small cap. Sadly, that's not always the case...
