Use drop caps

You can add drop caps to one or more paragraphs at a time. The drop cap’s baseline sits one or more lines below the

baseline of the first line of a paragraph.

You can also create a character style that can be applied to the drop-cap characters. For example, you can create a tall

cap (also called a raised cap) by specifying a 1-line, 1-character drop cap and applying a character style that increases

the size of the first letter.

One-character, three-line drop cap (left), and five-character, two-line drop cap (right)

Create a drop cap

1 With the Type tool selected, click in the paragraph where you want the drop cap to appear.

2 In the Paragraph panel or Control panel, type a number for Drop Cap Number Of Lines to indicate the number

of lines you want the drop cap to occupy.

3 For Drop Cap One Or More Characters , type the number of drop cap characters you want.

4 To apply a character style to the drop cap character, choose Drop Caps And Nested Styles from the Paragraph panel

menu, and then choose the character style you created.

You can also use the Drop Caps And Nested Styles dialog box to align the drop cap to the text edge, reducing the

amount of space on the left side of the drop cap, and adjust for drop cap letters with descenders, such as “g” and “y.”

If you want to resize, skew, or change the typeface of the drop cap letter for added effect, select the letter or letters and

make the formatting changes.

Remove a drop cap

1 With the Type tool selected, click in the paragraph where the drop cap appears.

2 In the Paragraph panel or Control panel, type 0 for Drop Cap Number Of Lines or Drop Cap Number Of

Characters.

Add rules (lines) above or below paragraphs

Rules are paragraph attributes that move and are resized along with the paragraph on the page. If you’re using a rule

with headings in your document, you may want to make the rule part of a paragraph style definition. The width of the

rule is determined by the column width.

The offset for a rule above a paragraph is measured from the baseline of the top line of text to the bottom of the rule.

The offset for a rule below a paragraph is measured from the baseline of the last line of text to the top of the rule.
