Dunno, but would guess if you really mean fancy you've got the wrong
font. Anyway, you might look at Stu Nicholls
<http://www.stunicholls.myby.co.uk/menu/dropcap.html> method. I've not
tried it myself, so don't know about cross browser compatibility:
If you want an initial cap you can mess around with p:first-letter, but
there are problem in IE 5.5 with that method.
I've played around some with an initial cap on this page:

However, if your primary goal is cross-browser communication and
readability for a business site, I'd concentrate on just that. Save the
'fancy stuff' for a personal venture of lesser consequence.
