N.Jeker, thank you for reporting the bug. Test document is a docx-file. Does the bug only occur after saving a odt-file as docx? Could you add an odt-file in this case as test file? => NEEDINFO I can't confirm with a file created on my own. Tested with odt and docx.

Created attachment 186482 [details] Testcase. Insert table in footer and save as docx -> Expected result
Dieter, thanks for looking into this and trying to reproduce it. The document I initially had the problem with came directly from Word, I tried to reduce it as much as possible. If I convert my test document to odt, the incorrect rendering is still visible. Removing the footer content and empty columns on the tables didn't fix it. I narrowed down the culprit to disabling "Allow row to break across pages and columns" in the parent tables table options. Sadly, the behavior isn't consistent, there is likely a second setting influencing it. I was able to reduce your test document to two nested tables each with only a single cell. Disabling "Allow row to break across pages and columns" on the parent table breaks it, enabling it again fixes it. Sadly, I wasn't able to reproduce the bug in a new document, I'm likely missing a second setting influencing the bug. I hadn't access to a Windows machine, but the behavior is the same on macOS.

Created attachment 186486 [details] Broke the testcase Testcase reduced and reproduced buggy behavior
I confirm behaviour for this specific document. Let's set status to NEW, but since we can't reproduce it from scratch I don't know , if a developer will try to fix it. Steps: 1. Open attachment 186486 [details] => Document shows buggy behaviour 2. Delete some paragraphs 3. Strg+Z => bug is reproducible 4. Delete some paragraphs 5. In parent table diable "Allow row to break across pages and columns" 6. Add some paragraphs => O. K.
