Bug ID: 150438
Summary: DOCX import: drop cap quotation marks are too big
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All

Status: UNCONFIRMED

typography issue, too (see Note).

3-line height punctuation marks.
Expected Results:
Smaller punctuation marks (their size is relative to the 3-line height capital
letters).
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No

>From Chicago Manual style (cited in
https://www.reddit.com/r/grammar/comments/ium133/can_i_start_a_paragraph_with_a_drop_cap_quotation/)
“When the first word of a chapter or section opens with a large raised or
dropped initial letter, and this letter belongs to the beginning of a run-in
quotation, the opening quotation mark is often omitted. If the opening
quotation mark is included, it should appear in the same size and with the same
vertical alignment as the regular text.”
