Hi all,
I'm proofing a book that periodically has sections of text that the capital
letters are missing at the beginning of sentences and proper names. The
letter is there, just the wrong case. So, I can catch the proper names with
spell-check or search and replace making sure to check case. I am wondering
about the best way to handle the first letter of sentences.
I was thinking that I could perform a find and replace using a punctuation
mark space and then each letter of the alphabet with care to make sure the
check case option is checked. I know I'll have to do all ending punctuation
as well as the punctuation and then a closing quote. Spell-check seems to be
catching the instances like i'm or i'll where i is not capitalized.
Any other ideas?
Lori
