Re: [docbook-apps] centered table problem
Bob Centering a proportional width table in an outer 3x3 empty table works OK (but it is an ugly solution) Now I would like to center the Table 1. TITLE heading above the table. Can you help me with this please? I guess it needs doing in a customization layer. my centered table in a table attached.
