Text Formatting ⇒ Does Letterine work with Fontspec?

[wednesday]

Hello List,

I'm new (a couple of weeks into my first LaTeX document).

I have been experimenting with the Letterine package for drop caps. It seems to work fine with the default typefaces.

However, (I'm using XeLaTeX) if I use package fourier, or polyglossia, or fontspec to choose a non-default typeface, the drop-cap occasionally (at every other page-ish) causes the main text to overflow a whole word into the right-hand margin.

Is there a workaround for this?

Can you reproduce this for us with a minimal working example?
