A drop cap affects a character, so why is it specified as a paragraph format?
Drop caps are paragraph formats because they are not specific to selected text. If a drop cap is applied to a paragraph, it remains even if the text is edited. In addition, drop cap formatting can be applied consistently through paragraph styles.
What is a tab leader?
A tab leader is a character (or multiple characters) that fills the space between text and a tab marker.

The controls are available in the Control panel and the Character panel.
