When I use PDFLaTeX I have a setup using microtype
and a font available in small caps (eg \usepackage{lmodern}),
\usepackage[
protrusion=true,
expansion=true,
kerning=true,
spacing=true,
tracking=true,
factor=1100,
stretch=40,
shrink=10
]{microtype}
\SetTracking{encoding={*}, family= *, shape=fsc}{16}
I would like the same set-up for XeLaTeX (as much as possible). I know that XeLaTeX only allows protusion with microtype but I have a lot of \rmfamily\bfseries\scshape
in my commands (for sections and so on) and I want to enable the tracking globally just as microtype does it with PDFLaTeX.
I know I can use LetterSpace
to do it locally, but is there a way to do it only once and for all?

This is the scheme for Linux Libertine:
Adapt to your setting. The tracking is set to 50, which is certainly too much, just for clearly showing the effect.
