The problem is the margin-right which establishes an end-indent. In the first table the end-indent is reset to 0mm on the table-body. You're not doing that in the second table. Therefore you get an inherited end-indent of "10mm" in the second table and that's why the text isn't properly aligned. Remember the rule of thump for tables: if you have a start-indent or end-indent outside of a table, remember to set start-indent="0mm" and end-indent="0mm" on the table-header, table-footer and table-body to reset all indents to 0mm. Otherwise, you'll be bitten by inheritance. See also http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/IndentInheritance <snip/> Jeremias Maerki
