Typography
Examples
The following code sample shows the use typographic Capitals in XAML. Notice that the variant feature is applied to all text contained with the Paragraph element.
<FlowDocument FontFamily="Palatino Linotype" FontSize="24">
<Paragraph Typography.Capitals="SmallCaps">
This example shows the use of the Capitals property
of the Typography object. The entirety of this paragraph
is displayed in small capitals letters,
except for the first letter of a sentence,
and where an uppercase letter is used. In these cases,
a large capital letter is used.
</Paragraph>
</FlowDocument>
The following code sample shows the use typographic Capitals and NumeralStyle features in XAML. Notice that both typographic properties are applied to the entire paragraph.
<FlowDocument FontFamily="Palatino Linotype" FontSize="24">
<Paragraph Typography.Capitals="SmallCaps" Typography.NumeralStyle="OldStyle">

</Paragraph>
</FlowDocument>
Remarks
The Typography object exposes the set of features that an OpenType font supports. By setting the properties of Typography in markup or code, you can easily author documents that take advantage of OpenType features.
The following text displays standard capital letters for the Pescadero font, followed by the letters styled as "SmallCaps" and "AllSmallCaps". In this case, the same font size is used for all three words.
Text using OpenType capitals
The following markup example shows how to define capitals for the Pescadero font, using properties of the Typography object. When the "SmallCaps" format is used, any leading capital letter is ignored.
<Paragraph FontFamily="Pescadero" FontSize="48">
<Run>CAPITALS</Run>
<Run Typography.Capitals="SmallCaps">Capitals</Run>
<Run Typography.Capitals="AllSmallCaps">Capitals</Run>
</Paragraph>
The following code example accomplishes the same task as the previous markup example.
MyParagraph.FontFamily = new FontFamily("Pescadero");
MyParagraph.FontSize = 48;
Run run_1 = new Run("CAPITALS ");
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_1);
Run run_2 = new Run("Capitals ");
run_2.Typography.Capitals = FontCapitals.SmallCaps;
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_2);
Run run_3 = new Run("Capitals");
run_3.Typography.Capitals = FontCapitals.AllSmallCaps;
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_3);
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(new LineBreak());
MyParagraph.FontFamily = New FontFamily("Pescadero")
MyParagraph.FontSize = 48
Dim run_1 As New Run("CAPITALS ")
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_1)
Dim run_2 As New Run("Capitals ")
run_2.Typography.Capitals = FontCapitals.SmallCaps
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_2)
Dim run_3 As New Run("Capitals")
run_3.Typography.Capitals = FontCapitals.AllSmallCaps
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(run_3)
MyParagraph.Inlines.Add(New LineBreak())
Typography Properties
The following table lists the properties, values, and default value of the Typography object.
All dependency properties of this class also have an attached property usage in XAML. For instance, you can set the AnnotationAlternates property through this syntax:
<object Typography.AnnotationAlternates="value" .../>
