I wanted something consistently displayed, regardless of device used. Could that be possible? After lots of trial and error, I found the only way to get that target was with an image, so I decided to employ a SVG image. With the following code you can get a perfect drop cap for all Kindle models (forget for the moment KF7):

Below you can check the respective epub, with the SVG image for the letter "B". Regarding KF7, you know, we can't get there drop caps, so I displayed the first letter as bold.

As I said, I respect you and I'm enormously fond of you. I too admire the devotion and time you put into this. Something is rubbing up against the back of my head on this--I can't remember now what it is. Dammit. But there's something about using an imaged-drop-cap that doesn't work just so. I'll keep thinking. (Maybe in a few days--allegedly, I'm off work today!)
Nonetheless: awesome coding.
