[xep-support] Table width in XEP 4

[David Tolpin]

Hi Jirka,

this is done in confromance with the specification.
By default, table-layout="fixed". For table-layout="fixed",
table width is determined in the same way as of a block container
or a block in the same context, that is, 100% (with some reservations).
The columns are then widened to fill the whole table width.

What you want is <fo:table table-layout="auto">, then the same.
Should work.

David
