When a cell is removed due to having no content its table cell borders are not transferred to neighboring cell.

When a table cell contains a paragraph with no runs it is stripped from the document. However, its table cell borders should be transferred/reapplied to its neighboring cell to maintain consistency.

Handle import of documents with self-referring styles.

As a workaround, you can go through the RTF document structure of a single file and utilize Regex to resolve the self-referring styles like this:

string rtf = File.ReadAllText("inputFile.rtf");
rtf = FixSelfReferringStyles(rtf);

Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Rtf.RtfFormatProvider provider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Rtf.RtfFormatProvider(); 

 var document = provider.Import(rtf);

...

private static string FixSelfReferringStyles(string rtf)
{
    string regexString = @"{\\s([0-9]+)[^}]*\\slink([0-9]+)";

    var matches = Regex.Matches(rtf, regexString);
    foreach (Match match in matches)
    {
        if (match.Groups[1].Value == match.Groups[2].Value)
        {
            var oldValue = match.Groups[0].Value;
            var newValue = oldValue.Replace(@" \slink" + match.Groups[1].Value, string.Empty);
            rtf = rtf.Replace(oldValue, newValue);
        }
    }

    return rtf;
}

Workaround:

Setting the IsDirty property of the FiledInfo object to "true" in order to recalculate layout and update the fields when the document is opened in a viewer:
var fieldInfo = editor.InsertField("TOC");
fieldInfo.UpdateField();
fieldInfo.IsDirty = true;
