Question

Hi all, I am creating a very simple Index in Indesign and I have come across a problem. The commas after each number are in the centre of the line and not in the position they should be - at the bottom. I have checked all my styles and can't find a problem there. See screenshot. Thank you in advance.

When you set up the index's specs, might you have chosen the wrong comma? There are several and one version appears above the baseline just like in your sample. Or maybe a baseline shift was caught in the specs?

You could run a Grep Find/Replace:

 

Find: ,\h + "Index" para style

Replace by: $0 + [none] char style
