How to case converter for titles and code
- Paste the heading, sentence or list you want retyped.
- Choose the conversion. Title Case also asks which style guide, because they disagree.
- Press Convert the case, and read the result before you copy it.
- Add any brand name or acronym it got wrong to the custom terms box, then run it again.
Title Case is five different rules
There is no single Title Case. AP and Chicago disagree about at least nine common words. APA lowercases function words of three letters or fewer. MLA lowercases every article, conjunction and preposition however long it is. Pick whichever one your editor or your university asked for, or leave it on the plain web style, which capitalises everything except the short joining words.
Where a rule turns on grammar rather than on a list of words, the page tells you so instead of pretending. AP lowercases as when it is a conjunction and capitalises it as an adverb, and no word list can decide which one you meant, so the tool takes the commoner reading and prints a line admitting it guessed.
What happens to an acronym
Lowercasing everything and then capitalising each first letter is the quickest way to build one of these, and it is why so many of them turn COVID-19 into Covid-19 and GST into Gst. A short run of capitals — GST, ISRO, COVID — is left standing here. It is a setting, so you can switch it off when the text was typed in caps by accident rather than on purpose.
One line is the exception, and it is worth knowing about. A line where every word is capitals is read as shouting and converted, because HELLO WORLD FROM GRATISLAB has to come back as a real title. The cost is that NASA AND ISRO comes back Nasa and Isro. Put NASA and ISRO in the custom terms box and they survive in the form you wrote them.
Your line breaks and line endings survive
Every conversion runs one line at a time, so ten headings pasted in come back as ten titles rather than one long one, and camelCase does not weld a paragraph into a single unreadable identifier. If the text arrived with Windows line endings it leaves with Windows line endings — a converter that quietly rewrites those is a converter that breaks whatever you paste the result into.
