%  \section{Introduction}
%
%    The file \file{\filename}\footnote{The file described in this
%    section has version number \fileversion\ and was last revised on
%    \filedate.}, provides a command |\lettrine| which requires two
%    mandatory arguments, and an optional one.
%
% \changes{v2.23}{2020/03/14}{Documentation cleanup.}
%
%    Adding |\usepackage{lettrine}| in the preamble of a document
%    defines the command |\lettrine|, the simplest use of which is
%    |\lettrine{|\meta{letter}|}{|\meta{text}|}|.
%    It produces a dropped capital \meta{letter} (2 lines high),
%    followed by \meta{text} typeset in small caps, and the rest
%    of the paragraph is wrapped around the dropped capital.
%
%    The |\lettrine[|\meta{options}|]{|\meta{letter}|}{|\meta{text}|}|
%    command accepts various optional arguments to control the size and
%    layout of the dropped capital and match the requirements described
%    in the books
%    \begin{itemize}
%    \item ``Lexique des règles typographiques en usage à
%           l’Imprimerie nationale’’ troisième édition (1994),
%           ISBN-2-11-081075-0,
%    \item ``Mise en page et impression’’ Yves~Perrousseaux,
%           ISBN-2-911220-01-3.
%    \end{itemize}
%    The parameters can be set using the \texttt{key=value} syntax:
%    \begin{itemize}
%      \item \lopt{lines=}\meta{integer} sets how many lines the
%            dropped capital will occupy (default=2);
%
% \changes{v1.7}{2014/09/16}{New counter to add lines for
%    dropped capitals with positive depth, like Q.}
%
%  \item \lopt{depth=}\meta{integer} sets the number of lines to be
%    reserved under the baseline, this is meant for dropped capital with
%    positive depth, like Q (default=0);
%  \item \lopt{lhang=}\meta{decimal} ($0\le|lhang|\le1$) sets how much
%    of the dropped capital’s width should hang into the margin
%    (default=0);
%  \item \lopt{loversize=}\meta{decimal} ($-1<\lopt{loversize}\le1$)
%    enlarges the dropped capital’s height: with \lopt{loversize=0.1}
%    its height is enlarged by 10\% so that it raises above the top
%    paragraph’s line (default=0);
%  \item \lopt{lraise=}\meta{decimal} does not affect the dropped
%    capital’s height, but moves it up (if positive), down (if
%    negative); useful with capitals like |J| or |Q| which have
%    a positive depth, (default=0);
%  \item \lopt{findent=}\meta{dimen} (positive or negative) controls the
%    horizontal gap between the dropped capital and the indented block
%    of text (default=0pt);
%  \item \lopt{nindent=}\meta{dimen} shifts all indented lines, starting
%    from the second one, horizontally by \meta{dimen} (this shift is
%    relative to the first line, default=0.5em);
%  \item \lopt{slope=}\meta{dimen} can be used with dropped capitals
%    like |A| or |V| to add \meta{dimen} (positive or negative) to the
%    indentation of each line starting from the third one (no effect if
%    \lopt{lines=2}, default=0pt);
%  \item \lopt{ante=}\meta{string} can be used to typeset \meta{string}
%    \emph{before} the dropped capital (typical use is for French
%    guillemets starting the paragraph).
%
% \changes{v1.6}{2004/05/22}{Add a flag to switch to
%    images in eps or pdf format.  Suggested by Bill Jetzer.}
%
%  \item \lopt{image[=true]} will force |\lettrine| to replace the letter
%    normally used as dropped capital by an image in eps format (latex)
%    or in pdf, jpg, png, etc.\ format (pdflatex, xelatex, lualatex);
%    this requires the |graphicx| package to be loaded in the preamble.
%    |\lettrine[image=true]{A}{n exemple}|\quad or just\\
%    |\lettrine[image]{A}{n exemple}|\\
%    will load |A.eps|, |A.jpg|, |A.png| or |A.pdf| instead of letter~A.
%
% \changes{v2.52}{2023/08/14}{New option`viewport’ to be passed to
%    \cs{includegraphics}.}
%
%  \item \lopt{viewport=}\meta{llx lly urx ury} is passed to
%    |\includegraphics| (same four dimen parameters); when present,
%    |\lettrine| only considers the contents of the rectangle defined by
%    its lower left and upper right corners to compute the scaling
%    ratio (which will apply to the whole image).  It’s up to the user to
%    ensure that the rest of the image will not overwrite the
%    surrounding text, f.i.\ providing a |\vspace*{...}| in case
%    a significant part sticks out on top of the defined rectangle.
%    This option may be useful in case the letter covers only a limited
%    part of the image,
%    see \url{https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/693270/} for an
%    example, or when the image’s bounding box is inaccurate.
%
% \changes{v1.8}{2015/02/06}{Added two keyval options:
%    `grid’ (true/false) and `novskip’ to override \cs{DiscardVskip}.}
%
%  \item \lopt{grid[=true]} will force the vertical skip added above the
%    paragraph starting with |\lettrine| to be rounded up to an integer
%    number of |\baselineskip|.  This option is meant for grid
%    typesetting.
%
% \changes{v2.80}{2025/01/30}{New keyval option:
%    `nextpage’ (true/false), default is false.}
%
%  \item \lopt{nextpage[=true]}; if a paragraph starting with a dropped
%    cap begins too low on a page to fit in, a warning is issued; this
%    flag controls whether the whole paragraph should be moved to the
%    top of next page or not. This option is not recommended, there are
%    often better fixes for such situations: reducing the dropped cap’s
%    height, shortening some previous paragraph, enlarging the page…
%
%  \item \lopt{novskip=}\meta{dimen} overrides |\DiscardVskip|
%    (default=1pt).  In some cases (see options \lopt{lraise},
%    \lopt{loversize} or accentuated dropped capitals,…) the top of
%    the dropped capital will raise above the top of following text
%    (usually in small caps), this will trigger a corresponding vertical
%    skip above the paragraph starting with |\lettrine|, \emph{only if}
%    this skip exceeds |\DiscardVskip|.  Consider enlarging |novskip|
%    (or |\DiscardVskip|) to prevent small vertical skips from being
%    rounded up to |\baselineskip| when using the `grid’ option.
%
% \changes{v1.9}{2015/08/31}{New keyval option: `realheight’
%     (true/false) and new global flag \cs{ifLettrineRealHeight}.}
%
%   \item \lopt{realheight[=true]} will compute the default height of the
%     initial so that the top of it is exactly aligned with the top of
%     the text entered as second mandatory argument of |\lettrine|
%     taking possible accents into account.  Otherwise, the default
%     height is computed using a customisable string
%     |\LettrineSecondString| instead of the real argument.  For
%     backward compatibility, option \lopt{realheight} defaults to
%     \lopt{false} and |\LettrineSecondString| to `x’.
%
%     You probably don’t need this option if you choose to typeset
%     the second mandatory argument of |\lettrine| in small caps
%     (the default).  If you change |\LettrineTextFont| to |\relax|
%     or |\upshape|, consider these two examples:
%     \begin{description}
%     \item |\lettrine{H}{ello}| you might like the top of the
%       `H’ to be aligned with the top of the `ll’ rather than with the
%       top of the `e’, adding option |realheight| does the trick:
%       |\lettrine[realheight]{H}{ello}|.\par
%       Global variants : |\LettrineRealHeighttrue| or (without the
%       |realheight| option) |\renewcommand*{\LettrineSecondString}{l}|.
%       \item |\lettrine{L}{a misère}| option \lopt{realheight=true} would
%       align with the top of the `L’ with the top of the grave accent,
%       the default is probably better (top of the `L’ aligned with the
%       top of the non accented letters).
%     \end{description}
%
%   \item \lopt{refstring} with no value, is meant for fancy initials
%     with irregular heights (i.e.\ taken in fonts like Yinit (OpenType),
%     \file{cfr-initials},…).  Option \lopt{refstring} forces the
%     |\fontsize| computations to be run on the initial given as
%     |\lettrine|’s first mandatory argument instead of the reference
%     string |\LettrineTestString|.  In most cases, this option should
%     \emph{not} be used: think of accentuated initials or capitals with
%     optical correction.\par
%     \lopt{refstring}=\meta{string} can be used to override
%     |\LettrineTestString|, the default reference string
%     (option \emph{seldom useful}).
%
%    \end{itemize}
%
%    Example: |\lettrine[lines=4, lraise=0.1, nindent=0em, |%
%                        |slope=-.5em]%|\\
%    \mbox{}\phantom{\tt Example: lettrine}%
%                        |{V}{oici} un exemple |…
%
%    Coloured initials are available in conjonction with package
%    \file{color}, examples: \\
%    |\lettrine{\textcolor{red}{A}}{n} example|\quad or\\
%    |\lettrine{\textcolor[gray]{0.5}{A}}{nother} one| \\
%    see package \file{color} for the syntax of colour commands.
%    Another possibility to colour initials globally is described
%    below, see |\LettrineFontHook|.
%
%    Three dimensions, |\LettrineHeight|, |\LettrineDepth| and
%    |\LettrineWidth| hold the final size of the initial
%    (\textit{height} and \textit{depth} being measured from
%    the paragraph’s  $n$-th baseline if |lines=|$n$.
%
%    Have a look at files \file{lettrine-demo-fr.tex} and
%    \file{lettrine-demo-lua.tex} and at the resulting PDFs in the
%    \file{doc} folder to see the possible usage of these parameters.
%
% \changes{v1.9}{2015/08/31}{New customisable string
%    \cs{LettrineSecondString} to tune the initial’s height.}
%
%    Starting with version~2.30, the default settings can easily be
%    specified as options passed to the \pkg{lettrine} \emph{package}.
%    These options are the same as those of the |\lettrine| command
%    previously described%
%    \footnote{With the exception of \lopt{ante} and \lopt{viewport}
%    which do not make sense for a global usage.}:
%    f.i.\ |\usepackage[lines=3]{lettrine}|
%    will set the default to three lines of text.
%    Options passed to the \pkg{lettrine} package override the defaults
%    set in the \file{lettrine.cfg} file (see below) and will be
%    overriden by options passed to the |\lettrine| command.
%
%    The default settings can also be customized in a config file
%    \file{lettrine.cfg} (backward compatibility).  The following list
%    shows the syntax to set them and their default values:
%    \begin{itemize}
%      \item |\setcounter{DefaultLines}{2}|,
%      \item |\setcounter{DefaultDepth}{0}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\DefaultLoversize}{0}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\DefaultLraise}{0}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\DefaultLhang}{0}|,
%      \item |\setlength{\DefaultFindent}{0pt}|,
%      \item |\setlength{\DefaultNindent}{0.5em}|,
%      \item |\setlength{\DefaultSlope}{0pt}|.
%      \item |\setlength{\DiscardVskip}{1pt}|,
%      \item |\LettrineImagefalse|,
%      \item |\LettrineOnGridfalse|,
%      \item |\LettrineMoveAtEOPfalse|,
%      \item |\LettrineRealHeightfalse|.
%    \end{itemize}
%
%    Instead of giving optional parameters to the |\lettrine| command,
%    it is possible to set them on a per character basis
%    in a second config file (suggested by Pascal Kockaert):
%    |\renewcommand{\DefaultOptionsFile}{|\meta{filename}|}|
%    in the preamble will force this file to be read `AtBeginDocument’.
%    Alternatively, |\usepackage[optionsfile=|\meta{filename}|]{lettrine}|
%    produces the same effect.
%    See examples of such config files in the subdirectory \file{contrib}.
%
%    The idea is to provide settings for specific fonts, or to define
%    suitable parameters for some initials like A or V, for instance\\
%    |\LettrineOptionsFor{A}{slope=0.5em, findent=-1.5em, nindent=.7em}|\\
%    Options passed this way are meant to fine tune how the text will be
%    wrapped around the initial; for convenience \emph{inside}
%    |\LettrineOptionsFor| \emph{only}, |\LettrineWidth| can be used
%    instead of~|em| as a unit length.
%
%    Since version~2.70, these commands are also allowed in the document’s
%    preamble.  Mixing |\LettrineOptionsFor| commands in the preamble
%    and in an external config file is not recommended: remember that
%    if an options file is declared, the settings it holds will be taken
%    into account `AtBeginDocument’ thus possibly overriding
%    |\LettrineOptionsFor| commands in the preamble.
%
%    Anyway, the settings read from this file will be overridden by the
%    optional arguments eventually given to the |\lettrine| command.
%
%    More customisation possibilities are offered by the next four
%    commands:
%    \begin{itemize}
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\LettrineFontHook}{}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\LettrineTextFont}{\scshape}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\LettrineTestString}{EFTZ}|,
%      \item |\renewcommand*{\LettrineSecondString}{x}|,
%    \end{itemize}
%    |\LettrineTextFont| sets the font used for the second argument
%    of |\lettrine|, its default definition is
%    |\newcommand{\LettrineTextFont}{\scshape}| (second argument in
%    small caps), this can be changed using |\renewcommand|.
%
%    |\LettrineTestString| and |\LettrineSecondString| provide
%    reasonable defaults for Latin scripts (|EFTZ| and |x|).
%    For other scripts they \emph{should be changed} respectively to
%    uppercase and lowercase letters of the given script, as the
%    dropped cap’s height computation is based on these strings;
%    another possibility is to use the previously described
%    \lopt{refstring} and \lopt{realheight} options.
%
%    |\LettrineFont| \emph{is not customisable} see |\LettrineFontHook|
%    below, it sets the font used for the dropped capital, usually the
%    current font in a (large) size, computed automatically from the
%    number of lines it will fill: the font size is computed so that,
%    a \emph{standard} dropped capital (say Z, not À) when sitting on
%    its baseline, gets its top aligned with the top of the following
%    text (provided $|loversize|=0$ and $|lines|\ge 2$).  When
%    \lopt{lines=1}, size is computed as if \lopt{lines} was~2.
%
%    A hook |\LettrineFontHook| is provided to change the font
%    used for the dropped capital, syntax follows LaTeX’s
%    low-level font interface (see LaTeX Companion III, section~I-9.3),
%    the |\selectfont| command is issued by |\LettrineFont|:\\
%    |\renewcommand{\LettrineFontHook}{\fontfamily{ppl}|\ignorespaces
%    |\fontseries{bx}%|\\
%    |                                 \fontshape{sl}}|\\
%    selects Palatino bold expanded slanted for the dropped capital.
%
%    With LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX changing the lettrine’s font is
%    even easier, simply use the |\fontspec| command:\\
%    |\renewcommand{\LettrineFontHook}{\fontspec{LinLibertine_I.otf}}|\\
%    will switch to Linux Libertine Initials.
%
%    |\LettrineFontHook| can also be used to change the colour of
%    all initials in a (part of) document:
%    |\renewcommand{\LettrineFontHook}{\color[gray]{0.5}}| \\
%    will colour the initials following this command in grey.
%    A |\color| command can be added in |\LettrineTextHook| if the text
%    following the dropped cap requires the same or another colour.
%
% \changes{v1.3}{2002/08/23}{Correct the documentation to
%    mention the cm-super fonts and the type1ec package by
%    Vladimir Volovich.}
%
%    \vspace{.5\baselineskip}
%    \textbf{Important notice:}
%    the sizing works fine with \emph{fully scalable} fonts (like the
%    standard PostScript or OpenType fonts), but might not work well
%    with CM/EC fonts which have two limitations: only a limited number
%    of sizes is available by default (precise adjustments are
%    impossible), and the largest size (25pt or 35pt) is often too
%    small.  The CM fonts are available in PostScript type1 format
%    for free (courtesy of BlueSky/Y\&Y), to make them fully scalable,
%    it is mandatory to add |\usepackage{type1cm}| in the preamble
%    of your document.
%    The EC fonts are also available in type1 format for free
%    (thanks to Vladimir Volovich, they are called cm-super), and
%    adding |\usepackage{type1ec}|\footnote{This package, available on
%    CTAN, was first released on 2002/07/30.}
%    in the preamble will make them fully scalable too.
%    So, if you want \file{lettrine.sty} to work properly with CM
%    or EC fonts, you will need \emph{PostScript versions} of these
%    fonts \emph{and} one of the packages |type1cm.sty| or
%    |type1ec.sty|.
%
%    The LM fonts are a good replacement for both CM and EC fonts they
%    are fully scalable, so you should use them instead of CM or EC
%    fonts.  |\usepackage{lmodern}| is the command to switch them on
%    (add |\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}| when composing in one of the
%    western languages other than English in order to get proper
%    hyphenation).
%
%    You can also consider using one of the standard PostScript fonts
%    (Palatino, Times, Utopia…), or any OpenType font, they are
%    fully scalable too!
%
%    \vspace{.5\baselineskip}
%    \textbf{Breaking change in version~2.50:} in order to improve the
%    alignment of side by side parboxes starting with a dropped cap, the
%    internals of the |\lettrine{}| command have changed. Formerly, the
%    initial was completely smashed (\textit{height}=0,
%    \textit{depth}=0) and a |\vskip| was added in case the initial
%    sticked out too much above the paragraph’s first baseline. From
%    version~2.50 on, the initial gets a null \textit{depth} and its
%    proper \textit{height} (measured from the paragraph’s first
%    baseline, please note that it is different from |\LettrineHeight|).
%    This change has the following side effect: in multicolumn
%    typesetting, when a dropped cap starts a column and sticks out
%    significantly above the baseline, it might be necessary to `smash’
%    the dropped cap and eventually to add a |\vspace{}| before
%    the multicolumn environment. See \file{lettrine-demo-fr.pdf} p.~4
%    for an example.  Using the rollback mechanism to switch back to
%    version~2.40 is another option: |\usepackage{lettrine}[=v2.4]|.
%
%    \vspace{.5\baselineskip}
%    \textbf{New in version~2.60:} the |\lettrine| command is now
%    compatible with right to left typesetting, with LuaLaTeX and
%    XeLaTeX (+\pkg{babel} or \pkg{polyglossia}).  With XeLaTeX, file
%    \file{lettrine-xetex-bidi.def} (v0.8 [2022/11/06]) is automatically
%    loaded by the \pkg{bidi} package; it redefines the |\@lettrine|
%    command based on version~2.30 of \pkg{lettrine}.  This code is
%    \emph{incompatible} with versions~2.50 and newer, you can safely
%    remove \file{lettrine-xetex-bidi.def} when installing v2.60 of
%    \pkg{lettrine}.

%    \vspace{.5\baselineskip}
%    \textbf{Known issues:}
%    \begin{itemize}
%    \item Starting with version~2.80, the \pkg{lettrine} package
%      issues a warning in case a paragraph starting with a dropped
%      capital occurs at the end of some page thus requiring manual
%      page-breaking; it’s up to the user to figure out how to best
%      fix the issue (enlarging the page, shortening some previous
%      paragraph…).  A new option \lopt{nextpage} has also been added,
%      when set to \lopt{true}, the whole paragraph is moved to the top
%      of next page… leaving a blank at the end of the previous page.
%    \item |\lettrine| works within `quote’ `quotation’, `abstract’
%      environments but does not work within `verse’ environments.
%      It doesn’t work either in `center’ environments except with
%      option \texttt{[lines=1]}.
%    \item |\lettrine| does not work within lists.
%    \item If |\lettrine| is used inside any environment, it is
%     \emph{mandatory} to end the paragraph starting with the dropped
%      capital \emph{inside} the environment; adding a |\par| command
%      before the end of environment usually fixes placement issues.
%    \item The LaTeX |\raggedright| command doesn’t work well with the
%      TeX |\parshape| command used internally by |\lettrine|.
%      Please use the |\RaggedRight| command from the \pkg{ragged2e}
%      package together with appropriate settings, f.i. \\
%      |\setlength{\RaggedRightRightskip}{0pt plus .1\hsize}|. \\
%      See \url{https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/97808/} for
%      details.
%    \item If a \emph{list} has to be included in a paragraph starting
%      with |\lettrine|, it is necessary to add the command
%      |\parshape=0| just after the end of the list (starting a new
%      paragraph  just before or just after the list works too).
%      Remember that `quote’, `quotation’, `abstract’ environments
%      are implemented as \emph{lists} in LaTeX.
%    \item If you are facing some slight height inaccuracy for a
%      dropped capital, you can try option \lopt{refstring};
%      this option is meant for fancy (unaccented) initials.
%      Informations about targeted and effective initial’s
%      height are available in the \file{.log} file.  Using LuaTeX
%      or XeTeX engines with OpenType fonts may be an option
%      (some TFM files for Type1 fonts are slightly inaccurate).
%    \item |\LettrineTestString|’s value has changed over the time;
%      these changes may result in slight size differences for the
%      initial.  Starting with version~2.2, the lettrine package takes
%      advantage of the rollback facilities recently introduced by
%      the LaTeX Team\footnote{A LaTeX kernel dated 2018-04-01 or
%      newer is required.}.  Three rollback versions are provided in
%      order to produce exactly the same output as with former
%      versions: you can request
%      |\usepackage{lettrine}[=v1.6]|\footnote{Don’t forget the
%      \texttt{=} sign!} for 1999-2012 documents or\\
%      |\usepackage{lettrine}[=v1.9]| (documents from 2012 to July 2018)
%      or\\ |\usepackage{lettrine}[=v2.0]| (August 2018).
%      Using any date in ISO format works too:
%      |\usepackage{lettrine}[=2014-03-15]| will load v1.9.
