If you want to switch your text to all small caps, you are able to do that as well. Step 1: Open the document containing the text that you want to cross out. Step 2: Select the text that you want to cross out. Step 3: Click the Home tab at the top of the window. Step 4: Click the Strikethrough button in the Font section of the navigational ribbon.
