Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion Alan! I've been using lettrine all the time, without knowing it was actually obsolete, sorry!

I'm now trying the \placeinitial command but coloring like:

\definecolor[MyColor] [r=.76,g=.72,b=.48]
\setupinitial[color=\MyColor,font=Bold sa 4,distance=0pt,n=3]

doesn't seem to work! Is this as expected behaviour or a possible issue?

Regards,

Gerard Verhaag
