Hey there, 
I am trying to render a new dynamic table (lets call it "inner table"), inside another static table(lets call it "outer table").

Now, insider a cell of the outer table, i have added the table tags for the dynamic table.
When I call the Adobe API, the inner table's rows are now being generated in a new row of the outer table, therefore having multiple outer table rows with only one inner table row.

I have attached the expected result from the API and also the actual result that is being rendered by the API in the attachments below.
Can someone please explain what is the issue here or what can be done to over come this problem?

I'm going to guess, yes, since I'm having the same issue when merging a Word doc. 
Scenario: A table is used for layout purposes and a dynamic table is then nested inside of that, the data is looping over the outer table. Simply put: a 1 page nested table with 10 rows becomes a 10 page document with one row on each page.
