JTable: Bottom of text is cut / cropped when using customized table cell renderer

The same type of text looks fine in columns using the default table cell renderer, but the bottom of the text is cut in columns using a customized table cell renderer. The bottom of text is cut because the customized table cell renderer adds a border which occupies some space. All you need to do to fix it is to set the border to null.

        public class MyFieldRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {

               public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(
                       JTable table, Object value,
                       boolean isSelected,
                       boolean hasFocus,
                       int row, int col) {

                       JComponent cpnt = super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, col);
                       cpnt.setBorder(null);

                       return cpnt;
               }
       }

If the text is cut all over the table, you may consider to use a smaller font or set the row height of the table to a larger value.

      Font font = table.getFont();
      table.setFont(font.getFamily(), font.getStyle(), <your size>);

      table.setRowHeight(int rowHeightInPixel);
