Re: cals tables - UNSOLVED

["R. Ermers" <r.ermers@hccnet.nl>]

Dear Aditya,

thanks greatly for your advice! It works! I now can influence how my tables look like.

Do you think it is possible to typeset an xml file that contains <cals:table, or do I need to typeset the tables separately and then import the separate pdf files?

Thanks again,

Robert
