Question First line on page is truncated (top of line)
I have having a problem with the first line of text on a page being chopped off--that is, the top part of all characters that extend above the lower case characters is missing.
  • This happens only for particular styles (e.g., body) but I don't see anything odd about the styles that are causing problems.
  • It is independent of the font.
  • It is independent of the header (I've tried different spacings, etc.)
  • It is independent of the amount of space I specify Before the line (in Paragraph dialog box).
This is a large (>600 pages) document that has been around for several years. It is currently in Word 97-2003 format. I am sure that the styles have been changed from the original MS Word styles and the document has been edited (in English) but in many different countries including Japan.

The problem is not just a display problem; it also occurs in the hardcopy.

Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?
