ACotton was telling us:
ACotton nous racontait que :

No. There are no extra lines (above or below each line of text) or
spaces (before or after).

This is not quite what Suzanne inquired about.

Select your line of text in the table cell, do Format Paragraph and see if
there are values in the spacing part of the dialog. Look for Space Before,
Space After or Line spacing.
If all of them are 0 (except for line spacing which should be either
"Single" or a value of around 12 points if you are using 10-point text),
then something else is going on, if they are not, then you have your answer!

Salut!
