17.4.68 tcMar

This element specifies

a set of cell margins for a single table cell in the parent table.

This setting, if present, shall override the table cell margins from

the table-level cell margins (17.4.42).

[Example: Consider a table whose first cell is defined to have default cell margins of 0.5 inches for all sides rather then the table defaults, as follows:

R2C1

R1C1

This set of table cell margins is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:tcPr>
  <w:tcMar>
    <w:top w:w="720" w:type="dxa"/>
    <w:start w:w="720" w:type="dxa"/>
    <w:bottom w:w="720" w:type="dxa"/>
    <w:end w:w="720" w:type="dxa"/>
  </w:tcMar>
  …
</w:tcPr>

The tcMar element as a child of tcPr specifies the set of table cell margins used for the first table cell, in this case, 720 twentieths of a point on all sides. end example]
