How to use \textsc{} in section headings?

[Rehceb Rotkiv]

Hello,

how can I use smallcaps in LaTeX section headings? \textsc{string} does
not work. I do not want all headings in smallcaps, though, only single
words. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Rehceb

You must use a font that has bold small caps.

If you are using the cm-fonts, try \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}
\section{\textsc{Hallo} section}
\end{document}

Look at the titlesec package
