TeX - LaTeX Asked by C j on February 23, 2021
How might one implement a simple drop cap in plain TeX without additional packages?
Here's a very basic approach showing two possibilities; the first one using hangindent
and the second one (more flexible), parshape
:
fontlettrine=cmssdc10 at 30pt
fontscfont=cmcsc10
hsize=24pc
noindent{lettrine L}
vskip-2.15baselineskiphangindent=1.8pc hangafter-2 noindent{scfont orem} ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Ut purus elit, vestibulum ut, placerat ac,
adipiscing vitae, felis. Curabitur dictum gravida mauris. Nam arcu libero, nonummy eget,
consectetuer id, vulputate a, magna. Donec vehicula augue eu neque. Pellentesque
habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Mauris ut
leo. Cras viverra metus rhoncus sem. Nulla et lectus vestibulum urna fringilla ultrices.
Phasellus eu tellus sit amet tortor gravida placerat. Integer sapien est, iaculis in, pretium
quis, viverra ac, nunc. Praesent eget sem vel leo ultrices bibendum.
