Or select the frame, and choose Type > Convert to Area type
...
When converted, set the Pffset Offset in Area Type Options to “Ascent” (first option)
...
Area text is created with padding value at top.... CHILI publisher removes this padding value during conversion, and there is no preflight warning. That’s why there is a slight shift in text positioning.

Growing text frames
Observation
...

Undefined tab stops
Observation
Tab spacing with an undefined tab stop in Illustrator may cause text to shift when imported to CHILI publisher.In Illustrator when no tab value is defined (pressing the tab key without defining a specific value), it will result in CHILI publisher using its default tab spacing (which is larger than Illustrator’s).

However, if we do define a tab value, then CHILI publisher will respect it.
...
We can see in the resulting conversion that the non-defined tab frame has the “here” text farther to the right than Illustrator, but the frame with a defined tab value maintains the spacing in Illustrator:
...
Workaround
Ensure all tabs used in Illustrator file have their own defined tab stop, or correct the tab spacing within Chili post conversion.
