I don't have this problem with a 3 line drop - it's higher than InDesign though (just above the ascenders - the 'L' for example). ...just tried it with a 5 line drop - it's the same as the 3 line Ah, just had a thought, and tried it - 'The height is determined by the choice of font' - some higher, some lower than the ascenders. Can you try it and see if it's the same with your fonts as well? Thanks. Cheers, Peter
