      Hi there,

      I’m typesetting some lyrics in a CD booklet and the translation lost it’s formatting from the original document that included the first letter of every line being capitalized. I’ve done a lot of work on the typesetting already and REALLY don’t want to bring it all in again fresh.

      Is there a string someone can help me with to make that style happen? Kids are home and screaming at their games so any complicated thought to figure it out myself is impossible.

      Thank you!

      Found the astonishingly simple answer here … like I said, screaming children.

      Create a Character Style for All Caps
      Add the GREP Style to my Paragraph style for each word after a carriage return: ^\S

      Cheers!
