I have been looking for the answer to this for quite some time, but to no avail, so I hope someone here will be able to help me.

I have recently exported a document from FineReader 12 to word. The document is basically a 130-page-long table. The table has a regular shape: 5 columns, no merged cells.

However, when I merge individual tables (FineReader splits them by page) into one by deleting the lines between them, the table gets an irregular shape on each joint, like this.

Given the sheer number of tables I have, is there a way to reset their shape altogether? So far it seems I have to manually adjust each table's columns to fit the other ones.

I have tried resetting the table and column width, text wrapping etc.; I also selected the entire table and checked, then unchecked the "table header" tick for all.

Converting table to text and back doesn't work, because some cells have paragraph breaks, and that's to be dealt with later.
