A better workaround would be to hack the stylesheet itself, and conditionally set this parameter. For instance, I made a patch in print/dbtable.dsl for Norm that added: (define %cals-cell-before-column-margin% (cond ((equal? (print-backend) 'tex) 0pt) (else 3pt))) I would appreciate it if you would work out the patch (although Norm seems to prefer snippets to patches) so that all DocBook Stylesheet users would benefit from your discovery. -- .....Adam Di Carlo....adam@onShore.com.....<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
