Hi, Which converter prog did you used?
I am programming html2fo and it converts colspanned cells into the corresponing widths within fo:table-column. You could get it from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/html2fo the currently available version is 0.4.1 but I will try to release a new version this week. Via CVS is a more recent version available.
