I use a standing cap at the chapter beginning:

<p class="first"><span class="stand">T</span><span class="small">HE GLACIER WOUND AND TWISTED</span> between upthrust walls of naked stone.

p{margin:0;text-align:justify;}
.small{font-size:0.77778em;}
.stand{font-size:2.5em;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;line-height: 1.2rem;}
.first{text-indent:0;margin-top:2em;}


Convert to AZW, on Kindle, it adds a space proportional to the cap size below the first line: see screen.
On ePub was the same, until I added "line-height: 1.2rem;". That fixed the linespacing in ePub, but was ignored in Kindle.

Is there a way to fix linespacing that works in Kindle?
