A few simple elements—drop caps, borders,
and shading—make your newsletters and brochures look like a professional
produced them. A drop cap is the
enlarged first letter of a paragraph that provides instant style to a
document. Instead of using a desktop publishing program to create a drop
cap effect, you can quickly achieve the same thing in Word. You can
change the drop cap position, font, and height, and then enter the
distance between the drop cap and paragraph.
