I have a similar issue. I want to export a Jasper report with a simple table to Microsoft Word. I encountered a formatting issue with the table starting from MS Word version 2409, while in earlier versions, the layout appears correct. I tried different Jasper versions (6.20.1, 6.23.1, and 7.0.1), but the issue persists.

Here are the details:

In Jaspersoft Studio, the table displays correctly in the preview.
When I export the table to Word (.docx) and open it in a Word version prior to 2409, the layout matches the preview in Jaspersoft Studio.

However, in Word version 2409, the result changes significantly: the column widths are altered, making the report less readable.

Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
