I want to write a conference paper according to IEEE (latex) format, and this involves copying all the bad font choices in IEEEtran.cls (Times text, cm math, ughh...). I need smallcaps only for section titles, so right now I am doing a local switch to latin modern for the section titles. This is what IEEEtran.cls also does. Do you think that faking smallcaps from Times will look better? If so, how can I fake smallcaps?
Thanks, Aditya
Faking is already implemented: \kap{foo} (see cont-eni, chapter 5.7). You decide if this is uglier than using latin modern for section titles. I have actually bought a couple of professional fonts, and once you've seen the real McCoy, you'll find the fake ones repulsive. But most people won't even realize, I guess. HTH Thomas
