Package: tex4ht
Version: 20060312-1
Severity: normal
Dear Kapil, der Eitan,
when using tex4ht with dcolumn, the representation of numbers in the
output file is weird. The following document:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{dcolumn}
\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}{lD{.}{.}{2}}
hello & 1.23 \\
bye & 5.2 \\
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
Produces a table with four numbers: 1 and 23, separated by a dot, and 5
and 2 separated by a dot:
<td style="white-space:nowrap; text-align:center;" id="TBL-1-1-2"
class="td11"> 1<span
class="cmmi-10">.</span>23 </td>
I'm not a html guru, but it seems to me this is just a font change for
the dot, which doesn't seem to make sense. Anyway, it makes editing the
resulting file hard - not a problem for html probably. But the same
also shows up in the OpenOffice output, and now we have two separate
"formulae" for the "1" and for the "23", and this is cumbersome.
Thanks in advance,
Frank
