/ David Penton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> was heard to say: | and the display of borders. But I cannot spot anyplace where one might | control what goes on inside a table entry. Specifically, where would one | express the geometry of the area inside the rectangular boundaries of the | entry (cell margins, or padding, or whatever these things are properly | called)?
The CALS Table Model gives relatively little control over these presentational features. | We use Arbortext Epic to create our documents. We did not purchase the | Arbortext composition software (if that is the correct term - you know, the | printing stuff). We eventually will print using the Advent 3b2 product. | But for now, the authoring group is trying to learn how to deal with table | creation. Epic's interactive table editing capability appears to assume | that a cell entry has margins or padding surrounding the contents of a table | entry. Can you give some specific examples of the sort of control you'd like to have? | On the weekend I considered plunging into N. Walsh's stylesheets to see if I | could understand the process of going from CALS to xsl:fo objects to see if | I could spot how the "cell padding" thing might work, but I JAMMED OUT like | the craven coward that my Mom knows me to be and decided to post to this | list instead.
