About the Case Converter

Case Converter rewrites the capitalisation of text without changing the words. Paste a paragraph that arrived in all capitals, pick the style you want, and the converted version appears below ready to copy. It is faster than retyping and avoids the typos that retyping introduces.

Six styles are available. UPPERCASE and lowercase are self-explanatory. Title Case capitalises the first letter of every significant word and leaves short joining words such as of, and and the in lower case, which is the convention most style guides use for headlines. Sentence case capitalises only the first letter after each sentence ending. Capitalized Case raises the first letter of every word without exception. Alternating case flips between lower and upper on each letter.

The original text stays in the input box, so you can try several styles against the same source and copy whichever reads best. Nothing is uploaded, which makes the tool suitable for unpublished headlines and client copy.

Frequently asked questions

Which words stay lowercase in Title Case?

Short articles, conjunctions and prepositions such as a, an, the, and, or, of, in, on, to and for stay lowercase unless they are the first or last word of the title. This follows the convention used by most editorial style guides.

How does Sentence case decide where a sentence starts?

A new sentence begins after a full stop, question mark or exclamation mark followed by a space. The first letter of the text is always capitalised. Proper nouns are not detected, so names may need a manual fix.

Does the converter change my punctuation or spacing?

No. Only letter case changes. Punctuation, line breaks, spacing and the order of words stay exactly as you pasted them.

Does it work with accented letters and non-English text?

Yes. Conversion uses the browser's own Unicode case rules, so accented Latin characters, Greek and Cyrillic all convert correctly. Scripts without letter case, such as Arabic or Chinese, are passed through unchanged.

Can I convert a very long document?

Yes. There is no length limit, and conversion happens instantly because it runs locally in your browser.

Is alternating case useful for anything practical?

It is mostly used for informal or sarcastic emphasis in social posts and memes. It is included because people ask for it, not because it belongs in formal writing.
