How to shorten space between topics in printed documentations?

Hello,

I am using RoboHelp 2015 and Windows 7.

When generating printed documentation, two blank lines separate topics, as seen in the picture below:

I am wondering if it's possible to make that space smaller? I've already tried adjusting Before/After paragraphs to 0 in RoboHelp and Word for those styles.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Look at the source topic and see if there are extra lines below the last line of text.

During generation, they will be treated as paragraphs.

Turn on Word's Show / Hide paragraph markers and see if that space really is two paragraphs or part of that Heading style.
