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
