    In RichTextBox when tables are not separate by split and text exceeds more than one line it exceed the limits of the cell.

    Please see example from attached files.

    I could also reproduce the issue at my end. Since AR6 is a legacy product and is no longer supported, I tested this with the latest version i.e v11 and could see the issue in this version as well. I’m forwarding it to the concerned team and if it is fixed, it’ll be fixed in the latest version i.e v11 or even v12 due for release in November. Tracking Id - 246909

    I have received an update on this issue. The issue is caused by the merged cells in table and RichTextBox doesn’t fully support them. We suggest you to use cells with hidden borders instead of merged cells, as a workaround. Please see the modified rtf file with invisible borders. I’ve tried it and it works well.

    There seems to be a temporary problem with attaching files here. I’ve uploaded the rtf on dropbox and you can download it from https://www.dropbox.com/s/7xgmhl9c0ukqm5l/rtf_without_split%20-%20invisible%20borders.zip?dl=0
