Enquiry on small caps in Russian

Spacing-out was used in Germany and to some extent the Netherlands for
emphasis and sometimes for book titles in bibliography, but I have the
impression that italic is now gaining in use
 
Well, my experience in the Czech Republic even these days is that if I send italics to the printers they invariably convert it to Sperrung (i.e. spacing). (I'm glad Paul made the point about being able to use"character spacing" for Sperrung in MS Word. Saves having to insert non-breaking spaces in words to avoid stupidities at line ends.)
