Small Caps in Pages?

Is there any way in Pages to convert text to Small Caps? Or all the other "usual" text conversions (upper, lower, etc.)?

Thanks for any help!

Mountain Lion. Created text in Pages v4.3. It is 14 pt Helvetica Regular with 18 pt line spacing. OpenOffice version latest at v3.4.1 OS X. Pages document opened directly in Preview saw no change.

NC = no change.

Export	Preview	Acrobat Reader XI	OpenOffice Writer
PDF	NC	NC	N/A
DOC	Only Titlecase lost	N/A	Only Titlecase lost
RTF	N/A	N/A	all upper case lost

Be aware that Pages uses OSX services to do this opn the fly and always stores the actual text internally as lower case. It may not show up as Small or ALL Caps when exported.

It also means that it will not change ALL Caps down to lower case.
