InDesign: How to Improve Drop Cap Formatting and Positioning (Video Tutorial)
In this “Three Minutes Max” video, Mike Rankin uses a little known character to break a drop cap out into its own text frame for easy formatting. By inserting a discretionary line break, the drop cap can be styled separately, but InDesign still sees it as part of the word it was broken off of.
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
