Thanks, We did look into these, but wanted to make sure we were not missing something. Thanks again, for your help.

But usability functionality might be added, at the Simple API, yet not existing. In the following how someone can double check such a question: In the definition of the ODF 1.2 XML, the RelaxNG grammar ODF 1.2 schema http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-schema.rng The following constrained for styles from columns and tables are explained <group> <attribute name="style:family"> <value>table</value> </attribute> <optional> <ref name="style-table-properties"/> </optional> </group> <group> <attribute name="style:family"> <value>table-column</value> </attribute> <optional> <ref name="style-table-column-properties"/> </optional> </group> When in doubt the family name is mentioned in the spec http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#a16_36Table_Styles or open the XML file with an editor (I use JEdit with the Archive extension to open the XML from the ZIP, using XML Indent extension to indent the XML with a keyboard shortcut) The possible style properties of a table can easily be seen at: http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#element-style_table-properties >From a column at: http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#element-style_table-column-properties As you see from the references above, there is no Font style (i.e. fo:style-name<http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#property-fo_font-style>) is possible to be set at table/column. Q.E.D. ;) But someone could of course add some usability functionality to handle the font of the overall table. Similar like OOXML border styles given at the table itself have to be mapped to every cell in ODF. Best regards, Svante On 17.01.2013 17:11, Steele, Raymond wrote: Can anyone offer advice on this?

If not, what is the best way? Also, there seems to be a dead link in the Javadoc for each instance of OdfStyle. For instance, click on the OdfStyle link for the setDefaultCellStyle method on the following page. http://incubator.apache.org/odftoolkit/simple/document/javadoc/index.html.. Thanks, Raymond
