Title case converter
In the style your editor actually asks for. AP, Chicago, APA or MLA — they disagree with each other, and none of them means "a capital on every word". Your text never leaves this browser.

The styles disagree, and that is the point
A Journey Through the Woods — or through?
AP and APA decide by length. Articles, conjunctions and prepositions of three letters or fewer stay lowercase. Anything four letters or longer gets a capital, so it is Through, Between and With.
Chicago and MLA decide by word class. Every article, coordinating conjunction and preposition stays lowercase however long it is, so it is through, between and with.
All four always capitalise the first word, the last word, and the word after a colon. That last rule is why capitalising every word is not a shortcut to any of them.
Questions
Which style should I pick?
Whatever the person reading it uses. AP for news, press releases and most marketing. Chicago for books and long-form writing. APA and MLA if a university told you so. If nobody has told you, AP is the safest default and it is the one selected here.
What happens to NASA, iPhone and McDonald?
They come through exactly as you typed them. A word in all capitals is treated as an acronym, and a capital in the middle of a word is treated as deliberate, because "Nasa" and "Iphone" are wrong in every style guide there is.
I pasted a headline in all capitals and it worked. Why?
A line typed entirely in capitals carries no case information, so every rule would look at it and find nothing to change. It gets brought back down to lowercase first, then styled. There is a checkbox under Options if you would rather it were left alone.
Can I do several headlines at once?
Yes. Put one per line. Each line is treated as its own title, so the first-word and last-word rules apply to each of them separately.
