Publishing Tables in RTF Files
Tables are published with the layout defined when they were created in Arbortext Editor.
Be aware of the following restrictions when publishing tables:
• Table Styles, introduced in Word XP, are not supported.
• Nested tables are not supported.
• Tables inside a footnote body are not supported.
• If auto-generation of RTF style names is enabled, or if a user-defined RTF style is attached to a table-cell element (such as entry in the axdocbook document type), table spanning is ignored. Spanning is not affected by child elements of a table-cell element.
• Word does not apply prespace to tables, only to paragraphs. You may find that a table that has a prespace setting still runs into preceding content or tables when a RTF document is opened in Word. Refer to
Prespace in tables in RTF output in
Applying Prespace and Postspace to Elements for a method by which prespace can be applied to a table.
Refer to
Publishing Table and Figure Captions in RTF Files for information on publishing table captions.
