1) In MS Word, table rows may have heights defined either "exactly #", or "at least #'. Unfortunately, the current version of TRichView supports only "at least" model, so height of rows cannot be less than their content. More exactly, in TRichView, this option can be set only to the whole table, by including rvtoIgnoreContentHeight in table.Options. In the next update, I'll add this option in each cell, with the proper import and export to RTF and other formats.
2) I cannot reproduce missing cell borders in the newest version of TRichView, so I believe it is fixed.
3) White lines between the cells occur because, unlike MS Word, TRichView does not draw cell background in place of hidden border sides. This behavior can be changed by including rvtoCellBelowBorders in table.Options. However, in the current implementation, in this table this option may lead to disappearing of some cell borders. It will be fixed in the next update.

If you want to change table options for all tables that added in TRichView, you can process OnItemAction event:
Code: Select all
procedure TForm3.RichViewEdit1ItemAction(Sender: TCustomRichView;
ItemAction: TRVItemAction; Item: TCustomRVItemInfo;
var Text: TRVUnicodeString; RVData: TCustomRVData);
begin
if (ItemAction = rviaInserting) and (Item is TRVTableItemInfo) then
TRVTableItemInfo(Item).Options := TRVTableItemInfo(Item).Options + [rvtoCellBelowBorders, rvtoIgnoreContentHeight];
end;
)
4) TRichView loads your fields as a plain text, so you need to check all text and replace fields to values.
There is a separate add-on doing this work (ReportWorkshop), but it uses its own field syntax, so, if you have many existing templates, it's better to do this field replacement yourself.
The demos that replace field codes to values are here:

Choose the most appropriate demo, probably it is MailMerge-Text3.
It uses '{}' instead of '[]', but more important, it does not support nested fields, so you need to change parsing logic.
