Font case

Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001466

The distinction between the uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small) letters within a typeface. Text can be set in uppercase, lowercase, title case where the first letter of each word is capitalized, or sentence case where only the first letter of the sentence is capitalized. Some digital fonts, particularly decorative or script styles, are designed as unicase, meaning they contain only one set of letterforms, either all uppercase or all lowercase.
