Controlling Html Table row height in Word

Hi,
I’m performing a mailmerge, and one of the fields contain a html table. The code inserts and renders the table, however, I can’t seem to control the height of the rows. No matter what value I try, there is always a blank line after the td content.

Here is a merge value:

<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=1  width='100%'>
<tr height='10px' style='height:10px;' >
    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  colspan=3>Coverage Period 08/20/2024 - 06/19/2025
</td>
</tr>
<tr height='10px' style='height:10px;' >
    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  >&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;John Doe  
</td>
<td height='10px' style='height:10px;' >Ruby Plan</td>

    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  align='right'>$1,501.30</td>
</tr>
</table>

(I tried setting everything to a height of 10px).

And attached is an image of the rendered table. I cannot seem to get rid of the whitespace below each value.

I don’t know why, but the complete sample of html didn’t post in my previous comment. Let me try again


<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=1  width='100%'>
<tr height='10px' style='height:10px;' >
    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  colspan=3>Coverage Period 08/20/2024 - 06/19/2025
</td>
</tr>
<tr height='10px' style='height:10px;' >
    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  >&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;John Doe  
</td>
<td height='10px' style='height:10px;' >Ruby Plan</td>

    <td height='10px' style='height:10px;'  align='right'>$1,501.30</td>
</tr>
</table>

Ok, so, I decided to just call .Save(…) on the Document object, but, use SaveFormat.Html to try and discover something.

It looks like the content is being wrapped in

tags with margin-bottom values.

Any ideas how I can prevent that?

@todusjay Could you please provide code that will allow us to reproduce the problem and the output document produced on your side? I tested with the following simple code and the problem is not reproducible:

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
builder.InsertHtml(File.ReadAllText(@"C:\Temp\in.html"));
doc.Save(@"C:\Temp\out.docx");
