While create PS to PDF using this font Rusted Brushpen.otf Capital letters converted to Small letters

Returning to the original post...

gansanban said that his InDesign text with initial caps changed to lower case when the PDF was made (let's exclude for now his method of making the PDF).

The Hill

became

the hill

The font didn't change; instead, the characters changed. "T" (GID 53 / Unicode 0054) became "t" (GID 85 / Unicode 0074).

@Dov_Issacs, what would cause a character change during the creation of a PDF, via either Export/PDF or distilling a PS file?

Wondering:

1. If gansanban​ hard-typed the phrase in lower case letters, and then used various InDesign tools to "render" the text as initial caps (from the control panel's button to change case or from Type / Change Case / Title Case), could this have caused the error?
2. Or if gansanban had hard-typed it as he wanted it to appear, as "The Hill," what would have caused the caps to switch to lowercase? They are not the same GID/Unicode gylphs.

We run into similar issues with caps/lowercase rendering versus hard-wired content in our automated publishing and tagged PDF projects. Example: if I type "I NEED MORE DINOSAUR FONTS" in all caps rather than render it in all-caps, screen readers and other assistive technologies are likely to voice it as I-N-E-E-D-M-O-R-E-D-I-N-O-S-A-U-R-F-O-N-T-S, letter by letter as if it's an acronym.

Could his method of making the caps be the root problem here?

I'm also assuming that if he had exported to PDF rather than distilled a PS file, the export utility would have retained the original glyphs AND their rendering without a problem.

There is nothing wrong with Identity-H encoding of fonts in PDF. Use PDF export instead of distilling PostScript!
