Subject: RE: DOCBOOK: expected table format for pdf output
Hi Jeff I have also had trouble with tables. E.g. Using FOP, you have to define at least the colwidth attribute (assign it a fixed value). My solution was: <formalpara id="toolbar_main"> <title>Main Toolbar</title> <para> <informaltable frame="none"> <tgroup cols="16" align="justify"> <colspec colwidth="0.7cm"></colspec> <colspec colwidth="0.7cm"></colspec> <colspec colwidth="0.7cm"></colspec> ..... ... I don't know how Openjade handles that. best regards, (-:hris > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeff Iezzi [mailto:jeff.iezzi@semanticedge.com] > Sent: Donnerstag, 8.
