Troubleshooting 'small caps' effects in font dialog

[The Scientist]

I have a computer lab running Windows 2000. Having trouble with applying
'small caps' effects to a document.

When I go into Word, select Format>Font and select "Small Caps", the text on
the screen shows up in all caps, but when I try to print it out this
formatting only works on about half of the computers. I can't find any
information regarding this subject.

Is this a font problem? Program problem? Printer problem? or just another
wonderful adventure using Microsoft products?

Thanks in advance to anyone who has any insight on this problem.

When you say the text on the screen shows all caps, you mean it shows the
small caps and not just all caps? And the text you are selecting isn't all
caps to start with, right? If it looks right on the screen but prints
incorrectly, I have no idea why it would do that. You might want to double
check that the text isn't all caps instead of just small caps. I'd try
selecting the text and going to Format | Change Case and making sure it isn't
all UPPERCASE.

Good luck!
