I'm new to RC and have a simple problem with tables. If I type text in directly all is ok, but if I paste it in there is a large space below the text in the cell. I can't see how to rectify this.

Maybe you have newlines afterwards? You can just delete them. Or drag the table line to make the cell fitting?

Thanks for replying.
There is nothing below the pasted test and I've looked for invisible characters. The line at the bottom of cell can't be moved up.
It makes no difference whether the text is pasted from an external source of from within RC.

I wasn't able to reproduce the problem you describe - what are you copying exactly? Or maybe you could post a screenshot or upload your .rcd file?

I have created two screenshots, which I've uploaded to the website page below:

RC1 is as created and RC2 is what Preview shows

Thanks for reporting!
I was now able to reproduce the issue. I'll see if this can be fixed with the next update!

In the meantime, to rectify the problem, you could add a JavaScript like this to your site, forcing the table to have auto heights for their cells:

document.querySelectorAll('table td').forEach(cell => {
    if (cell.hasAttribute('height')) 
        cell.removeAttribute('height');
    const computedHeight = window.getComputedStyle(cell).height;
    if (computedHeight && computedHeight !== 'auto') {
        cell.style.setProperty('height', 'auto', 'important');
    }
});
