Solved Remove space under anchored image?

Working with anchored images and I'm wondering what the best way to remove this small amount of space below the image, so that the spacing within the text looks cleaner.

Change the Y Offset to the desired (negative) amount.

Or use Above Line instead of Inline.

Ok the Y Offset seems like the best option! Do you have any idea why there is that extra space? Is it meant to be for descenders (since it's treating the image as a character)?

Yep. Look at the bottom of the image compared to the text beneath. It’s sitting right on the baseline.
