It depends on what editor in joomla you are using, I have installed and use JCE as my editor, I then configure it to show the typography from the template I use, this shows in the drop list. I then highlight the text apply the style from the dropmenu

However the html code for a drop cap in T3 is
><span class=”dropcap”>insert your letter here</span>

Hope this assists you
Cheers Shannon

Thanks. I am using JCE as well. I have JCE set to YES for Use Template CSS
and for Custom CSS file, it says:
templates/$template/css/editor_content.css

Should this be changed?
The Style does not show up in the article edit page Style window.

BTW, I have added modules to the Template, so perhaps it is better for me to ADD the DropCap style to one of the existing CSS files? I think Teline III neglected to include DropCap in it’s CSS. Is this why it does not show up as an option?

Any help appreciated
Thanks so much,

Hi Mate
Here’s my settings in my T3 JCE configuration panel. Set yours (JCE configuration panel) the same and it will work fine. To use, open your article, highlight the letter you wish to make into a drop cap. open styles menu and look in the list for the word dropcap, click it to apply the code to your article etc

Blessings Shannon
