Borders can be applied to table cells (when appropriate), paragraphs, or
selected text. Be sure you check all three when looking at text in a table
cell.

Nope, track changes is off.

These can actually look like boxes around the text inside the cell. It
behaves like borders around text, but that isn't set either. It's not
normal
table borders, tried adding and removing borders has no effect on them.

We've noticed extra lines or borders around the text inside of cells
in a
table. They are faint and only appear when the document is printed.
Not
in
print preview or other views.

The problem starts after a table is created and the some format
changes
are
made such as bolding. We thought they might be paragraph borders,
I've
played with those and that doesn't help. Well it might for the first
print
afterwards but save the doc and change the format or simply reopen the
doc
down the line and the add'l lines, borders or boxes reappear in the
print.

Help!
