About the Title Case Converter
Capitalise a headline, a book title or a heading the way editors do. Articles, short prepositions and conjunctions stay lower case unless they open or close the title, words after a colon are capitalised, and acronyms like NASA and words with numbers are left alone.
How to use it
- Paste one title per line.
- Each line is converted to Title Case.
- Copy the titles.
Example
- Input
- the lord of the rings: the return of the king
- Result
- The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Questions
Which style guide does it follow?
It applies the rules AP and Chicago share: capitalise the first and last word and every major word; keep a, an, the, and, but, or, for, nor and short prepositions lower case. The guides differ on longer prepositions, so check a style guide for a formal publication.
Are hyphenated words capitalised?
Yes, each part: Long-Term Plan.
Will it break acronyms?
No. Words written entirely in capitals, words with numbers, hashtags and web addresses keep their original form.
