Interesting. Row cell height is calculated by cell content, and row height is the maximum cell height. For bottom aligned cell content the text vertical position will have to be adjusted. I'll take a look; hopefully it's a quick fix.

In following example there's a table with 1 row, 2 cells. The font size of the text in the first cell is smaller than the second cell. Both texts are aligned to the bottom of the cell. I get unexpected results: The 2 cells have a different height. I'd expect that all cells of a row would have the same height? Because of this the texts are not bottom aligned. Maybe I'm doing this the wrong way? Can anybody help me out on this? kind regards, Ivo Roefs exampleTableCellVerticalAlignmentOfText " self new exampleTableCellVerticalAlignmentOfText saveAndShowAs: 'exampleTableCellVerticalAlignmentOfText.pdf' " | report | report := R4PReport new. report portrait. report page: [:page | page table: [:table | table row: [:row | row cell: [:cell | cell border: 0.1; bottom.
