When I choose Apple Chancery (Mac Photoshop 7.0) Photoshop displays smaller capital letters instead of lower case. All other applications show the normal lower case letters with this typeface. How can I correct this?

Open the Character Palette and click on the flyout arrow in the upper right. Do you have Small Caps selected?

I see no flyout arrow. In fact I see no place where I am able to select fonts. I have ‘view’ where I have Roman selected.

There is also a ‘collections’ drop down menu, but no flyout menu.

I always wondered how this was supposed to function.

Under Window scroll down and select Character. A little palette will pop up. In the upper right there is a little black triangle in a circle. That is the flyout arrow. All the palettes have them. Click on it to get a menu of things specific to that palette.

I have no idea what Collections might be.Maybe that’s an OS X feature?

Nothing like that in Panther that I can see.

I find that hard to believe. Photoshop is the same on all platforms. Is there no Window item on the menu? Between View and Help? I can check tomorrow at work on a machine that runs Panther.

Another way: On the Options Bar, with the text tool chosen, there is a little palette icon over by the palette well. Click it and the Character palette will pop up.
