9.1.13 @acronym{acronym}

Use the @acronym command for abbreviations written in all capital letters, such as ‘NASA’. The abbreviation is given as the single argument in braces, as in ‘@acronym{NASA}’. As a matter of style, or for particular abbreviations, you may prefer to use periods, as in ‘@acronym{F.B.I.}’.

In TeX and HTML, the argument is printed in a slightly smaller font size. In Info or plain text output, this command changes nothing.
