I find that often as well - "export with current layout formatting"
rarely does. Other option is to generate calc fields based on
exported fields and set each as _ctName = Upper(Name) and export the
calcs instead. That tends to be more reliable - quite so in fact.

I need to be able to reformat a field of text into title case

If anybody knows how to do this in Filemaker or using any other
tools, I’d be extremely grateful!
Thanks in advance,

Have you tried turning on the "Export with current layout's
formatting" option?
