My goodness, I really started a brouhaha, didn't I? And all because I posted the CSS that Amazon suggested. It really didn't work, and I soon switched to this:
@media amzn-mobi {
span.dropcap { font-size:300%; }
}
@media not amzn-mobi {
span.dropcap {
font-size:300%;
float: left;
margin-top:-0.3em;
margin-bottom:-0.3em
}
I don't think it's helpful to declare that drop-caps "don't work in mobi." Most of us who publish Kindle books are accustomed to thinking of our files as exactly that--mobi--and when we download the converted file for testing, it is named filename.mobi
As viewed on the Fire and the other devices/apps using KF8 format, the drop-cap appears as a drop-cap. On the KF7 devices/apps, it's an up-cap. Both look good, though the drop-cap looks better. As others have noted, the result seems more like a .... book.
