Kat,

This is the way I do it.

The paragraph format for the side head graphic should have the pagination properties: alignment = top edge. The default font properties are set to size = 2 points. And the line spacing properties to 2 pt, fixed (you can try 0 points also). Setting the font to 2 pt and the line spacing to 2 pt makes the height of the paragraph to 2 pt, the smallest you can get. The graphic will be 2 pt lower than the top of the text column paragraph, but will be visually unnoticeable unless your text column is all caps.

I have not tried this, but you might try making the side head paragraph line spacing NOT fixed and the graphic inline; along with the top edge alignment.

Good luck,
Van
