About this tool
Title Case capitalizes the first letter of the important words in a title. Short words such as articles, conjunctions and short prepositions stay lowercase unless they come first or last.
This converter keeps words like a, an, the, and, but, or, for, of, in, on and to in lowercase in the middle of a title. Style guides such as AP, APA, Chicago and MLA differ in small details, so check the result against the guide you need.

Questions
Which words stay lowercase?
Common short words: a, an, the, and, but, or, nor, for, so, yet, as, at, by, in, of, off, on, per, to, up and via. The first and last word are always capitalized.
Is this the same as capitalizing every word?
No. Capitalizing every word is a simpler style some people use. Title Case leaves small connecting words lowercase, which is the more common convention for titles.
Does it follow AP or Chicago style?
It follows the general rule shared by most guides. Guides disagree about words such as 'with' and 'from', so make a final check against yours.
