Hi Jonathan, The specification indeed allows to specify a width on the cells from the first table row, and it can be a percentage.
IIRC there is a start of implementation in the FOP code to handle that, but it doesn’t work. References are made to the CSS2 specification about how this must be handled (especially if widths are specified on both cells and columns, if cells span several columns, etc.). Sorry, I don’t remember the details.
