Hi giozane,

The text with the white background in the cells has had a white background applied, whilst the other text has no background. The easiest way to fix many textboxes is with a macro:

Code:

Sub FixTextBoxText()
Dim Shp As Shape
For Each Shp In ActiveDocument.Shapes
  If Shp.Type = msoTextBox Then
    Shp.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Shading.BackgroundPatternColorIndex = 0
  End If
Next
End Sub
