From your description, I'm wondering if this is a long single-row table.
Word really won't tolerate that. Ideally, rows don't need to break across
pages, but they certainly shouldn't extend for more than one page--ever.
Break them wherever there is a logical break point (between paragraphs if
that's feasible).
The main problem, however, is probably with the images. Word is undoubtedly
allowing enough space for the image to fully display, which results in some
of the text in the same row (as well as the image) being below the margin.
Setting rows *not* to break across pages would be the solution to this,
provided that you have only one image per row.

I am creating a report with two columns, one containing text and one
containing images. The problem is that when the text breaks across pages-
lines of text are often lost.
Table margins are .1"
Text is not wrapping in table properties
This is a very long report (over 100 pages) and there is no way to play
around with the table margins so everything fits perfectly (one problem
will
be fixed and as a result another will be created).
I think the problem is that the table margins are extending further than
the
page margins and the text is getting cut off.
Is there some way to fix this without having to add a new row on each page
or entering a hard return at the end of each page in the middle of a
paragraph so no text gets lost?
It seems like this text breaking across page functioning is very glitch
and
just does not work. Is there some update or patch that will fix this?
