Reply To: GREP Styles problem

It didn’t work. It loses the ordinals in all places. But here’s what I did: I got rid of the nested style and did everything through GREP.

1. Apply style Ordinal to
(?<=\d)(st|nd|rd|th)

2. Apply style Small Caps to
^(\w|\.|,|’)* (\w|\.|,|’)+ (\w|\.|,|’)+ (\w|\.|,|’)+
There’s a trailing space there.

3. Apply style Drop Cap to
^\w

It was a bastard.

A clever GREP parser will see that I have decided to use four words instead of three.

Is there any tip on how to apply formatting in posts?
