djockim Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 When apply a style to the drop cap : The Drop Cap supposed to take (alone) the style it has been given to it. In practice the whole word take also the style.

GarryP Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 It might just be a language thing but it sounds like djockim is applying a style to the letter at the start of the paragraph which they want Drop Capped. (This might not be true but it's kind of how it sounds to me.) I think it's worth noting that the Drop Cap formatting should be applied to a paragraph and not just the character at the start of the paragraph. This means that the letter which is Drop Capped can change when then first letter of the paragraph changes. In other words, you don't have to re-apply the formatting if the first letter changes. This may, or may not, give some idea of what's going wrong in this case.
