The line-height: 1.2em is for .kf8 not for KFX.

Also, you don't want to force a line height as one of the reasons for using ChareInk6SP is to have a smaller line height and if your line-height works, then it spoils the line height of the font.
Ok. What happens with the drop cap under .kf8 without setting a line height when the user change the font-size or the font-family? If you're going to force the .kf8 format, to avoid all these inconveniences, it's best to use an SVG image as a drop cap, so you don't have to worry about the font family and font-size.

So can you do a dropcap in KFX without the line-height and not knowing what the default line-height will be?
Yes, under KFX you don't need to set a line height; Kindle will handle all the calculations and fine-tuning to get that drop cap just right.
