Default QR Code Causes Word Table to Expand Unfortunately

Hi,



I have a Word doc with tables at the top of the page, and I am placing a 1" X 1" QR code in the table on the right. There "seems" to be enough space and the table option to automatically resize to fit contents is not checked.

To display the QR code, I am using "DISPLAYBARCODE … QR\S100".

How do I make the table not expand because it causes our 1 page to expand into 2 pages? I've attached the original Word doc and the PDF results.

Thanks!

If you apply the Normal paragraph style to the cell, the extra space is removed. Whether this will still apply with your merge is difficult to say and cannot be tested without access to the merge document and dummy data.

Hi Graham,

Thanks you for the response. I read the similar threads you referred to and the "Normal" paragraph style, but they didn't help me. I am new to Word. I had uploaded my Word doc and the output previously. Today I uploaded the data. Thanks again for your help!
