[xep-support] table formatting

Hello Dan,

I cannot say anything definite about the first problem without XSL-FO
source. Could you please send short sample to me off-list (support at renderx.com)?

As for the second problem - 'reversed' text may be caused by the
negative spacing, which appears when indents are too big for
the area (that is end-indent moves end of the text to the left of the
start of the text defined by start indent). Often it is caused by
inherited indents, i.e. table nested inside of the list will inherit
lists indents. To prevent this from happening it make sense to define
explicit zero indents on the table. In case it doesn't help I would
like to have some samples as well.

By the way, which version of XEP you are using?

Best regards,

DV> These may be bugs

DV> I have a simple table with one row and one heading row. This table is 
DV> nested inside a couple levels of a bullet list and hits right at a page 
DV> break. The table is drawn, but the row of information hits the end of page 
DV> about half way into the cell (just a single line of text). I get the 
DV> rulings but no text in the headers (which are intact) on the page which is 
DV> ending. On the following page the table is complete and the way it should 
DV> be. There are other versions of tables like this just above and below this 
DV> break and they are formatted fine. When the table moved away from the page 
DV> break this problem went away. Anyone seen a problem like this?

DV> A second table has a problem that also seems to be related to a table 
DV> nested in a list. This time the table is composed of about 4 columns and 5 
DV> rows. The text in 2 columns (heads only) at the center of the table is 
DV> reversed - all other text is fine in both the header and body of the 
DV> table.  Anyone seen this as well?
