Hello,

How can I replace the stroke with a beautiful Mediaeval illumination?

Thank you for your explanations.

Mais je vous le demande, peut-on imaginer une police sans sérifs ?

First is get rid of the Decoration then Pin your illustration in the text.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.7 | Affinity Photo 2.5.7 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.7 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

If you have the illumination available as a file (say, a JPG or PNG or TIFF) then you should be able to Place it and Pin it floating on the left-side of that paragraph, then adjust the text-wrap settings of the Placed file to adjust how the text flows around it. And remove the paragraph decoration you're already using.

If I understood correctly, as I don't know the initial height of the quote, I need to create a picture frame that will contain the illumination over the entire height of the text frame and then adjust the visible height on a case-by-case basis according to the height of the quote?

You can adjust the height of the picture using % or pointsize plus other things.

I would have liked to be able, as with the stroke, for the height of the content of the picture frame (the flourish) to act as if it were sliding along the rail that constitutes the picture.

Like this.

That function does not exist. But as you said, you can do it with a picture frame whose height you adjust, or with the vector cropping tool.

Yes! In the meantime, it is a good alternative. This is obviously how I proceeded in the example above.
