I just copied some text (text format - no formatting) into an AFF Publisher document and found that there is a huuuuge difference between leading of 12 points and leading of 13 points. I set the character size to 10 points and wanted the leading to be 13, but the programme pumped the leading up to something enormous. So I set the leading to 12 points instead. No problem. Tried 13 points again... and it freaked out on me again. Another bug? Or did I just skip a step I am not aware of?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Kindly, Henriette

Might be the baseline grid overriding the leading. 

What happens if you turn it off at document level via View>Baseline Grid...:

You might also want to check Ignore Baseline Grid in Window>Text>Text Frame

You were right on the money, h_d - thanks a ton. 🙂
