Fixed row height is a feature that causes the problem.

	Hello,

	The following problem has been brought to my attention.  If you
	enlarge the size of the font used in a table cell, the table
	cell height does not expand to accommodate the increased height
	of the text.  Instead the text gets chopped of.

	A few questions:

	1. Is this a bug in RTF or the RTF backend, or is this a
feature?
	   Is it unreasonable to expect the cell height to expand to 
	   accomodate the size of the objects in it?  (Should it expand,
	   and does the fact that it doesn't indicate that I've got a
combination
	   of characteristic values that's preventing it---such as a
fixed row
	   height?)

	2. Do the cell-before-row-margin and cell-after-row-margin 
	   characteristics of the table-cell flow object offer the only
	   way to adjust the size? 

	3. If so, what do you suggest that I do in the DocBook
stylesheets?
	   Look for a PI in the cell or row?
