 * I have been using Twenty Twelve with TinyMce Advanced for several months and 
   have never been able to solve the following:
 * 1) When I enter text outside a table, as in the first block, with the line height
   is as I want it.
 * When I enter or paste text into the individual cells, the line height is too 
   great. How can I change it to match the line height to be the same as in the 
   first block of text?
 * 2) Also I cannot change the cell spacing, padding or border.
    Any help much appreciated.

 * All of these are controlled by the theme’s editor-style.css (and the style.css
   on the front-end). If you want to change them, best would be to make a child 
   theme and add these two files.
