Eu tenho um documento com 3 tabelas. As tabelas parecem muito bonitas, mas tenho um problema: elas são muito altas e por isso se sobrepõem à nota de rodapé!
Tentei reduzir o tamanho das letras dentro da tabela, mas não funcionou e não tenho permissão para alterar o tamanho da fonte do documento (deve ser 12pt).
Como posso consertar isso?
Aqui está um MWE:
