If your application does not support tables in presentations, then no matter what the ODF has, the tables will not be there, or will be simulated or messed up. The ODF spec has a (non-normative, IIRC) list of features for typical applications to st OASIS OpenDocument Specification v1.1. In this list, presentation applications don't need to support tables. This issue of supporting feature mismatches is why ODF needs to adopt OOXML's alternative content mechanism (MCE) so that the ODG can have the table both as table markup and as a graphic, with the application choosing according to its feature-support. IMHO. Cheers Rick Jelliffe
