Hi all, sorry for bothering you with this. I have a font Seravek-Regular.otf and Seravek-Bold.otf. It is actually my company font. Now I needed to use bold-smallcaps. But I can not get it working, though otfinfo tells, that in the bold font there are smallcaps In my typescript file I have the following two lines, from which the Regular variant works perfectly well. \definefontsynonym [SansCaps] [Seravek-Regular] [features=smallcaps] \definefontsynonym [SansBoldCaps] [Seravek-Bold] [features=smallcaps] I tried to get bold smallcaps with \bf\sc but without success. Can anyone point me what to do? Kind regards Willi

SansBoldCaps does not have a ‘short form’, afaik.

(or \let\sc\setsmallcaps, somewhere in the setup section, which is what I usually do). Note that this method does not need nor use the SansCaps and SansBoldCaps synonyms in the typescript, and that it only works for well-behaved opentype fonts. Oh, and it may give you italic smallcaps, something the old ’SansCaps’ based method never did. Best wishes, Taco
Wolfgang and Taco, thank you for this! Tac, the font Seravek I have is a bought font from processtype. Willi
