Title. I’m designing business cards where the names are in all caps, however I’d like to have a GREP style that, for example, searches the name “MCDONALD” and shrinks just the C. Is that possible?

Correct answer Jeffrey_Smith

Create the character style for the letter “c” with desired attributes. Create a paragraph style using a GREP style. In the “To Text” field, use the following GREP (?<=M)c and apply the character style for the “c”

Create a char style with just the “lowercase” option and create a Grep style applying this char style to the following Grep expression “M\KC”.

This solved it, thank you!

OK. That means you defined a para style in All Caps!
