Hi Stefan,
From the english manual...p24-25
Basically textwidth is the width available at the moment i.e. when in
any other sitation than one column. Makeupwidth is the total width of
the typesetting area.
Concerning you CALS table model, I assume indeed that you will have to
calculate the individual widths...
Kind reagards
