**Inheritance:**
java.lang.Object
```
public class DropCapPosition
```

Specifies the position for a drop cap text.

 **Examples:** 

Shows how to create a drop cap.

```

 Document doc = new Document();
 DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

 // Insert one paragraph with a large letter that the text in the second and third paragraphs begins with.
 builder.getFont().setSize(54.0);
 builder.writeln("L");

 builder.getFont().setSize(18.0);
 builder.writeln("orem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, " +
         "sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. ");
 builder.writeln("Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation " +
         "ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.");

 // Currently, the second and third paragraphs will appear underneath the first.
 // We can convert the first paragraph as a drop cap for the other paragraphs via its "ParagraphFormat" object.
 // Set the "DropCapPosition" property to "DropCapPosition.Margin" to place the drop cap
 // outside the left-hand side page margin if our text is left-to-right.
 // Set the "DropCapPosition" property to "DropCapPosition.Normal" to place the drop cap within the page margins
 // and to wrap the rest of the text around it.
 // "DropCapPosition.None" is the default state for all paragraphs.
 ParagraphFormat format = doc.getFirstSection().getBody().getFirstParagraph().getParagraphFormat();
 format.setDropCapPosition(dropCapPosition);

 doc.save(getArtifactsDir() + "ParagraphFormat.DropCap.docx");
 
```
