Reply To: Linked frames with different paragraph styles?

This one? https://creativepro.com/mak…..design.php

It'll only work if your larger font size and leading are both scaled up with the same values from your 'standard' paragraph.

By the way, if that first frame always contains the same number of lines (or if it can be made to), you can use a Line Style (CS4 and newer). You would need to create a duplicate of your base text style, though, as otherwise it'd be applied to every paragraph; and it would need some manual tinkering if there is more than a single paragraph on that first page — i.e., it does not apply to x lines over multiple paragraphs.
