Adding a large dropped letter within a text box
How can I create a large dropped capital letter inside of a text box?
I know how to do this outside of a text box but I cannot get it this way inside of one and have the text next to the large letter. Thank you in advance. |

Drop Caps are placed in frames; frames cannot be used inside text boxes.

Hi Trissa-
Drop caps is not supported in text boxes, but I do have a workaround (in 2003, at least)... which is probably more trouble than it's worth. Post back if you're interested. |:) "Trissa" wrote: How can I create a large dropped capital letter inside of a text box?
