PDF output for inline graphic

[rpraleigh]

I'm using DITA and adding an inline graphic to a task step. I'm using the PDF2 output. I add an image element and set the "placement" attribute to "inline" because I'm describing an icon the user should click. When I generate the PDF output, however, the baseline of the step text, but not the step number, has been shifted so that the text no longer lines up with the step number.
Here's an example of the output:

My question is: how can keep the line from shifting below the step number?

Hi,

Unfortunately, this is a known issue that cannot be fixed due to limitations in Apache FOP processor.

This happens when the image height is greater than the text line height. So, an workaround could be to resize your image.

Another option is to use a commercial XSL-FO processor: Antenna House or RenderX XEP. In this case the list item number is placed on the base line.
