Text Formatting ⇒ Calligram

[nucleotide]

Hello,

I am looking for advice on how to format paragraphs to give them a certain shape.

For example, I'd like certain paragraphs to look like this:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Mauris vehicula imperdiet augue auctor venenatis.
In nulla metus, gravida at tincidunt vitae,
malesuada a eros. Phasellus at ligula
quam, nec egestas purus. Vivamus
pharetra massa non mi dignis-
sim sit amet gravida mau-
ris feugiat.


The thing is, I don't want to cut up the text manually. I'd like the paragraph shape to stay the same when I change font size, for instance.

Any help would be appreciated.

The first I thought of was the shapepar package. I never used it, thus can't give any further advice.


Best regards and welcome to the board
