Single Line Drop Caps

I'm having a strange problem with DropCaps. I have a 2 line dropcap selected, and the drop cap has appeared 3 lines deep with only a single line following it:

In other places it works fine though:

Does anyone have any idea what is going?

Looks like an issue with the font. I noticed that you are using different fonts in your examples. Try a different one for the problematic drop cap and see if that clears it up.

hi rvodden

try to reduce the font size of the style for the drop caps to something below the value of the baseline grid.
