Yes, this is done by setting both the "table.cell.border.style" and "table.frame.border.style" XSLT stylesheet parameters to "none". See attached screenshot. About "-and to be printed-", File|Print is not the recommended way to print in XXE. It works fine (better than in most Web browsers!) but it will just print you a copy of what you see on screen. The recommended way to print is to use "DocBook|Convert Document|Print PostScript". See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/docbook/docbook_menu.html#docbook_convert_menu. Of course, this requires you to have a PostScript-compatible printer. > Which is the shortest way to get this? Procedure for both "Convert to PDF" and "Print PostScript": [1] Open your document. [2] Select "Options|Customize Configuration|Change Document Conversion Parameters". [3] Select a group of parameter using the combobox. For Example: "Converter to PDF, PostScript" [4] Click Add. [5] Type: --- table.cell.border.style --- then: --- none --- [6] Click OK to close the Add dialog box. [7] Click Add. [8] Type: --- table.frame.border.style --- then: --- none --- [9] Click OK to close the Add dialog box. [10] Click OK to close the main dialog box. This setting is specified once for all and not each time you'll have to convert a DocBook 4 or 5 document. Also note that you can also save this kind of special conversion parameter set for later use and then restore your usual conversion parameter set.
