"Fit Text" on table cell is not working for save as PDF

I am trying to use the “Fit Text” setting on a table cell. When I call document.updateTableLayout() and save the document to PDF, the cell widths are adjusted and the text is not wrapped, but the text size is not adjusted and the table row will go off the edge of the page. While searching for something related to this I found a thread that mentioned “WORDSNET-2044” had been fixed in 10.5, we are using 13.5 so I should have this fix.

I also tried calling updatePageLayout() before and after updateTableLayout() as well as calling updateTableLayout() before and after updatePageLayout attempting to get it to format the table correctly.

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks.

I just tried this with Words 15.2.0 and I get the same results.
