2.1.180 Part 1 Section 17.4.80, trHeight (Table Row Height)

For additional notes that apply to this portion of the standard, please see the notes for trPr, §17.7.6.10(b); trPr, §17.7.6.11(a).

a.   The standard states that if the hRule attribute is omitted, then its value is assumed to be auto.

In Word, if the hRule attribute is omitted, then its value is assumed to be atLeast.

b.   The standard states that the values of the val attribute are defined by the XML Schema unsignedLong datatype.

Word defines the values of this attribute with the XML Schema unsignedInt datatype, with a minimum value of 0 and a maximum value of 31680.

c.   The standard allows the hRule attribute to be set to exact while the val attribute is set to 0.

Word requires that if the hRule attribute is set to exact, then the val attribute must not be 0.

d.   The standard states that if the hRule attribute is exact, the row height must be exactly as specified.

In Word, if the hRule attribute is exact, Word sets the row height to the exact height plus the largest bottom cell padding of any cell in the row.
