In sofar as lay out is concerned, I use: \lettrine{T}{\kap{\bf here is no}} such thing as `digital technology'. This smoothes the gap between the first character and the normal type. Automatiing that in terms of \setup will be even harder, I guess. But then again, if your book has 20 chapters, you only need to do it 20 times ;-) G On 2 Mar 2009, at 12:42, Alan Stone wrote:

Hi,
Thanks a lot to Taco for the very handy lettrine module.
How do you make it automatically drop cap the first word of each chapter ?
I don't think you can.
How about cooking up something with \setuphead[chapter][after=...] to apply \lettrine to the first word or letter of the first paragraph ?
So far for the idea.
For the implementation I'm clueless...
Alan
Best wishes, Taco
