When the Drop Cap to a paragrah starts with the letter "A" how do i adjust the tracking so the bottom of the "A" is not touching the other word? Basicly i want more space between the Drop Cap "A" and other words.
Thoughts?

Add tracking to the A by selecting it and typing a number in the Tracking field.

The simplest way to tweak a drop cap is to create a Character Style and specify it in the Drop Cap menu.
You can then tweak that style for size, tracking, baseline shift, color etc.

One more variation on the same theme—I use Kerning. I click my insertion point in front of the first character after the drop cap, hold Alt/Opt and tap the right arrow key to push the text to the right. If I go to far, I use Alt/Opt and the left arrow key.
