Title Case

The combination of uppercase and lowercase letters typical in a title. Generally this means each word in the title begins with an uppercase letter, except for prepositions, conjunctions, and articles. Title case has a few additional rules:

· If a preposition, conjunction, or article is the first word or last word in a title, the first letter should be in uppercase.

· If a preposition, conjunction, or article consists of five or more letters, the first letter should be in uppercase.

Here is an example of title case:

These Words Are in Title Case.

Here is a list of common prepositions, conjunctions, and articles shorter than five letters each. They should appear in lowercase in text which is in title case: a, an, the, and, if, then, else, when, up, at, from, by, on, off, at, for, from, in, of, out, over, and to. (This list may not be exhaustive.)
