I want to use the initial font by Yannis Haralambous. I accessed these
fonts as
\newfont{\yinit}{yinit}
The result obtained was:
___
| |
| |
|___| - - - <- first line of text
- - - - - - - <- second line of text
- - - - - - - <- third line of text and so on.
The box indicates the space occupied by the \yinit font for the first
character of the text.This leaves a lot of white space above the first
line of text to accomodate the \yinit font for the first character of
the text. I want to use these fonts as in "DropCap" fonts in M.S.Word as
follows:
____
| | <-- first line of text
| | <-- second line of text
|____| <-- third line of text
<- - - - - fourth line of text and so on.
I solicit your valuable help in this regard.

TUGboat 19 #3 was shipped to the printer on Tuesday of this week,
and should be mailed within the next three weeks - depending upon
the holiday schedule at the printers.
The delay was due to many reasons - but we hope you will enjoy
this issue.
Holiday greetings to all for the TUGboat production team -
