Bug Description

I found this while testing BUG#1345992.

The font its having trouble with is Caudex, which you can find anywhere (including Google Fonts) so I won't waste bandwith by uploading it here unless someone needs me to. I actually was using a tweaked version (bolder, made sure smallcaps was in it, etc - lots of fontforge hacks), but the problem exists with the version from Google as well. XeTeX loads it just fine ... but XeTeX won't recognize SmallCaps!

If we could fix either one ...

It appears LuaTeX only supports OTF, and not TT. So, you fontforge to convert your fonts. It doesn't seem to like Bold Fonts - maybe this is a seperate bug?
