What does capitalizing text mean?

Capitalizing text means converting the first letter of each word to uppercase while keeping other letters lowercase. Example: "john smith" becomes "John Smith".

When should I capitalize text?

Capitalize text for proper names (John Smith), street addresses (123 Main Street), professional titles (Vice President Of Marketing), or headings where each word should start with a capital letter.

What's the difference between capitalize and title case?

Both capitalize the first letter of words, but title case follows specific rules (keeping articles and prepositions lowercase). Simple capitalization capitalizes every word uniformly.

Should I capitalize every word in a sentence?

No, for regular sentences, use sentence case (only first word capitalized). Capitalize every word only for titles, headings, names, or specific formatting requirements.

Does capitalization affect numbers or symbols?

No, capitalization only affects alphabetic characters. Numbers, punctuation marks, and special symbols remain unchanged during the conversion process.

Can I capitalize names from a list?

Yes, paste a list of names (one per line or separated by commas) and the capitalizer will format each name properly with first letters capitalized.
