Setting up a drop cap

If you want your paragraph to use drop caps (usually this is suitable for a first

paragraph style), then you can predefine the properties in the Drop Caps page of the

paragraph style dialog box. Selecting the option to display drop caps enables the

subsequent options where you can fine tune the appearance: the number of lines

occupied, the number of characters to enlarge (if you want the whole first word,

check the corresponding box), and the space between the drop caps and the text.

Figure 242: Options for adding a drop cap to the paragraph style

Drop caps use the same font and have the same properties as the rest of the

paragraph; however, you can easily modify their appearance by creating a specific

character style and using it. For example, you may want the drop caps to be of a

different color or apply an outline effect. Select the character style you want to use in

the corresponding drop-down menu.

Setting up paragraph background and borders

Adding a background color and a border to a paragraph is a good way to make it

stand out without having to insert a frame. You can customize the background and

border of the paragraph areas using the corresponding pages of the paragraph style

dialog box. In addition to highlighting, borders are also often used to separate header

and footer areas from the main text area (such as in this guide) as well as to provide

decorative elements in some heading styles.
