This certainly works. In the situation I was dealing with, the person was
trying to create a template with a figure style that included the 100 points
before. It's always a lot more difficult dealing with such issues in a
template; you'd probably have to have two styles: one for figures at the top
of a page and one for the rest.

What happens if you remove the space before for the figures that start a
page?

Wow...you're right. Only happens when the graphic is at the top of
the page. I forced the previous paragraph to the next page and the
overlap disappeared,

However, I also noticed that the glitch occurred when there was non-
zero space above the figure so the 10.5 pt was not a factor, at least
for me.

I was able to fix teh problem by adding 6 pts after the Figure
paragraph, but shouldn't have to do that.

Thanks. You're observation explained a lot.
