 * Hi, unlike in the Hueman demo page, I found that the Hueman dropcap shortcode
   on my site does not result in a nice lineup with the following text. The top 
   of the dropcap letter seems to sit lower than it should be. I am using the same
   font and size as the Hueman demo page. Is there anything that I can do to improve
   the position of the dropcap letter?
    Any ideas are much appreciated. Thanks, 
   Beat

 * Odd. Not sure why it’s not aligned like the demo. I tweaked the css a bit and
   got it closer:
 *     ```
       .dropcap {
         line-height: 0.8em;
         font-size: 102px;
       }
       ```

 * I am pretty new at this. Is it correct to just add this code to the style.css
   file of the child theme? It seems to work, thanks.
