Org-mode tables do export with their #+caption: and a usable #+name:,
whereas table.el tables export their content but ignore #+name:,
#+caption: and #+latex_attr:.
Minimal (non-)working example :
=
# tables.el tables ?
#+options: toc:nil author:nil date:nil
#+latex_header: \usepackage{booktabs}
The table [[Table1]] , manual conversion and rough approxomation of
[[Table2]], erports correcly, while the orginal one doesn't (no
caption,
no usable label).
#+ATTR_LATEX: :rmlines
#+NAME: Table2
#+CAPTION: Second table
