[OS X TeX] Re: Old style numerals with small caps

[Josep Maria Font]

Thanks to Bruno for his very detailed and helpful answer. It seems it is more difficult to solve the \oldstylenums issue than to just obtain old style numerals as default with small caps (which is what I was about). For the latter purpose, his advice:

has worked like a charm. 

Will this change in encoding package have any other side effects ? The packages we work with with some fonts effects that I can think of are lucidabr and textcomp.

Thanks again,
