Word for Windows: Subscript Text Is Cutoff in a Table
ID: Q80759

The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
SUMMARY
In Microsoft Word for Windows, if you apply subscript character
formatting to text within a table, the bottom portion of the subscript
text is cut off on the display and in the printed document. This
problem occurs regardless of the setting selected in the Line Spacing
box.
If you are running Word for Windows in Microsoft Windows operating
system version 3.1, tables cut off the bottom portion of the subscript
text on the display. Printed results depend on the print driver. For
example, the PostScript print driver version 3.5 cuts off the
subscript text, while the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet III driver version
3.89 prints the subscript text correctly.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, format the line containing the subscript
formatting with the following line spacing:
Word for Windows version 2.0
- From the Format menu, select Paragraph.
- In the Spacing box, select .05 li in the After box, then select 3
pt or a larger value in the At box, and choose the OK button.
Word for Windows version 6.0
- From the Format menu, select Paragraph.
- Be sure the Indents and Spacing tab is selected.
- In the Spacing box, type in 1 point (the default increment if you
click on the up & down arrows is 6 points). This will correct the
problem even if the subscript is not on the last line of text in the
cell.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word versions 2.x and
6.0 for Windows. We are researching this problem and will
post new information here as it becomes available.
