I'm a big fan of the "small caps" look for fonts.  Small caps is
when the 'lowercase' letters are the same character shape as the
uppercase, but with a smaller height.  There's the rub.  MS Word's
'small caps' style understandably uses smaller point size capitals
for the 'lowercase' letters.  This leads to the 'uppercase' characters
appearing darker on the final printout.  I don't care for this.

So, then, is there a PD/shareware/inexpensive 'small caps' font out there?
I'd like to see it in an outline form, either one of Adobe's or HP's.
(My target printer is the DeskWriter.)  I'll settle for a reasonably
complete set of bitmaps.

I do have a PD bitmap font called "Madison" that is exactly what I want.
It's lowercase letters are shorter versions of the uppercase characters,
but without the additional line thickness.  It comes in a reasonable
set of sizes, and even has slashed-zeros.  (I like being able to tell
a zero from an oh.)  Unfortunately, it's messed up in some way that
doesn't allow MSWord or MSExcel to print it to a high resolution printer
properly, I assume the fractional information is messed up, since it
prints to an imagewriter just fine, and prints to my DeskWriter from
other programs that don't use fractional spacing.  (I.e. the finder...
that's right, it's my finder font.)

So, then, my second request.  Is there a program out there that will
'clean up' my bitmap font?  Alternately, does someone have an already
clean version of Madison they'd be willing to share?

Please respond via email and I'll summarize for the net.

P.S. I'm not a big fan of small caps for general purpose texts, but
for things like the finder and spreadsheets where almost all text can
be described as a 'label' or 'heading' I think it's great.
