Step-by-Step
- Paste your text into the tool.
- Choose the case you want to convert to.
- Copy the result back out.
The Common Case Types
- UPPERCASE: every letter capitalized —
HELLO WORLD. - lowercase: every letter in lowercase —
hello world. - Title Case: major words capitalized, minor words (articles, short prepositions) lowercase —
Hello World,A Tale of Two Cities. - Sentence case: only the first letter of the sentence capitalized, like ordinary prose —
Hello world.
Which One to Use When
- Titles and headings often use Title Case, especially in more formal or traditional contexts (though many modern websites and style guides increasingly favor Sentence case for headings instead — check what convention your specific context expects).
- Body text should almost always stay in Sentence case — normal reading text should never be in all caps or title case.
- UPPERCASE is generally reserved for short labels, acronyms, or deliberate emphasis — using it for long stretches of text reads as shouting and hurts readability.
Fixing Text From a Bad Source
Text copied from a PDF, a scanned document, or an old system with inconsistent formatting sometimes arrives in a case that doesn't match your needs — all caps from a legal document, or inconsistent mixed case from a data export. Converting it to a consistent case is often the fastest way to clean it up before using it elsewhere.
