Hi BIRT Guru,

I got exception below when I try to generate MS word using BIRT engine API, could somebody give me a light on how to fix it? I guess it's an issue of my report template?

Hi Jason,

We have HTML content in our report, and I find the work around is that don't use absolute pixel value for table width.

***************
<br />
<table border="0" width="589" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="96">
<div align="center">
<a href=" ./../../../publish.openup.base/customcategories/getting_star ted_5684BDA6.html "
***************

to

***************
<br />
<table border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="96">
<div align="center">
<a href=" ./../../../publish.openup.base/customcategories/getting_star ted_5684BDA6.html "
***************

A bugzilla has been created: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=316240

Thanks much,
