Strange bug: When I type a line of text and hit return, type another line of text and hit return again, the cursor returns to the beginning of the second line. If I keep typing, I will type over the second line of text (that’s type over or on top of, not replace). If I drag the Text tool initially to create a text box, and begin typing, I get the same behavior with the automatic line returns. In no scenario can I type three or more distinct lines of text.

Sooo…what you do is set it to "Auto".

Actually, it was set to -7.5 for both before and after. Thanks for the tip. All is good now. 🙂
