Consider the following scenario. You create a table in a Microsoft Office Word 2007 document. The table that you created contains a row that is formatted as an exact row height. Then, you insert a larger table as a nested table in that row.

When you preview the document, the nested table may appear truncated. This behavior is expected because of the exact row height format. Then, you print the document. In this scenario, the complete nested table prints unexpectedly when you print the document.
