After Effects 2022 (22.2.1) All Caps Issue

After updating to 22.2.1 build 3 I've got strange problem with "All Caps" feature in Character control.
Some letters are "caps" and some are not, some letters can be made bold after that and some not. No issues like that were present in previous version.

See attached file. If font is anything else that "Regular" "All caps" is tottaly crazy.

Did you ever get this issue resolved?  I am having the same problem and it is with multiple fonts. Some fonts are effected with some letters and others with other letters. I am not able to update so I hope this isn't an issue that was fixed and pushed out in a later update.

I am currently using Version 22.1.1 (Build 74) and because of the stupid contract that Adobe made with the US Air Force I will not be able to update this version for a few years.

Strange things happened, I've opened same project on the same computer today and issue went away.

But it was on ANY font and no matter from where I copy/paste it

Also same issue happened in new project.

Not sure what it could be. Ae seems to be working fine at my end.

Feel free to reach out if it happens again. Happy to investigate.

 

Thanks,

I think that's a known issue/ bug. As a start, check the advanced substitution options in the panel flyout menu. Turning off those sometimes fixes things. Otherwise I guess you'll just have to find a different font that has a native all caps/ small caps version and doesn't rely on the font engine picking the characters.

UNfortunately using other font is not an option, because of corporate policy

i'm using pretty much "good" font Roboto Condenced anyway
