Small Capitals-is a capital letter that is of the same height as a lowercase x in the same typeface but is capitalized. They are different than the regular CAPS because they are small and the same size as the lower case. Volta does not have a small caps but the font minion pro has a small caps option.
Ligatures- are not simply two letters arbitrarily glued together, the two letters are crafted into a single letter,Certain letter combinations are simply crying out for ligatures, for example Th. I don't think my font has them, but maybe, I can't tell.
