Re: [libreoffice-users] Dropped Caps - Sharing a .doc file created in LO 3.4.3 and MS Word 2007

Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately, this problem has escalated into
a much larger one.

After installing, 3.4.4 - now I cannot get L.O. to even create a Dropcap. I
highlight the first letter of the paragraph, select format -> paragraph ->
dropcaps - show dropcaps and use the default of 3 lines - yet the only
thing occuring is the letter I selected gets a gray background.

I have tried uninstalling L.O. - deleting my profile in userapps etc - and
deleting L.O in Program files - then reinstalled. It still not work.
