Q: How do I create small caps with MS Word 2016 for Mac?

Select the text. Go to the Format menu and click on Font. In the Font dialog at the top where it says Font Advanced click Font. In the Effects section put a check mark in front of Small Caps.

Try looking in the Word help menu.

NP, I just thought you might try the help menu. I don't have the same Word version as you but Small Caps is included in the help menu.

Those are the same instructions in Office For Mac 2016 but they didn't help me -- no arrow in the lower-right corner of the Font group on the Home tab -- I think they changed the interface without changing the help. I only found it by searching through the menus.

Thanks interesting info. Here is where I end up following the help instructions I posted. One of those interface differences between Word versions I guess.

That's where I end up in Office 2016 as well -- it is the getting to that point where Help is of no help
