Drop cap shaped paragraph: line fit boundary · case 02
Lines that exactly fill their shaped width are broken early.
Case contract
Input [word widths, width, cap lines, cap width, gap, indent]. With a drop cap its first letter moves into the cap (first word loses one unit) and the first cap-lines lines are narrowed by cap width + gap; the first-line indent applies only without a cap. Greedy fill with unit spaces; a word too wide for an empty line is set alone. Return [[words on line, used width]].
Why this case matters
Line breaking decides where paragraphs wrap on screen and in print; a wrong decision point shifts every following line.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| regression: line fit boundary | [[3, 13], [3, 13], [4, 14], [1, 4]] | [[3, 13], [4, 17], [4, 15]] | Failed |
