my question is this.what is the correct teminology for creating a text
document where the first letter on the first line is about 48pt and covers
the first 3 or 4 lines.I don't know how to explain it,but I want to create a
document where the first line starts at the top of the 'giant' letter and
the 3rd or forth lines start at the base of the 'giant' letter. I am sorry
for being so vague but I do not know how to describe it any better.I am
running xp pro with ms office xp professional.thanks in advance
