Guides/ALL CAPS → Title Case

All caps to title case cleanly

Pasted press releases and old PDF titles often arrive as ALL CAPS. Title Case restores scannability for headlines; sentence case is often better for UI labels and plain paragraphs.

A practical Title Case pattern

• Capitalize the first and last words.
• Capitalize major words (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs).
• Often leave short closed-class words lowercase mid-title (a, an, the, and, but, or, for, to, of…) — style guides differ.
• Deeper comparison:title vs sentence case·when to use title case.

Worked transforms

1. HOW TO SPLIT A BILL WITH TIP → How to Split a Bill With Tip
2. CEO SAYS AI IS READY → keep acronyms: CEO Says AI Is Ready
3. For body copy, prefer sentence case: How to split a bill with tip.

Code-style cases are different

Developers need camelCase, snake_case, and kebab-case — not headline Title Case.camel vs Pascal vs snake·snake vs kebab.

Common mistakes

• Blind “capitalize every word,” including mid-title of/the when your house style says otherwise.
• Lowercasing intentional acronyms (NASA, HTML).
• Using Title Case for long paragraph text — hard to read.
