Many thanks! That seems to work perfectly.
No problem.
The original tables were created by copy/paste from part so I suppose it creates HTML tables when doing so.
If you pasted the table using "Paste from Word", then yes, that's right. By default, "Paste from Word" pastes HTML tables in DocBook documents (which is valid), not CALS tables.
This can be configured of course, though, currently this requires tweaking an undocumented configuration file by hand.
Will make this choice easier in the next release and/or will make the CALS table the default when using "Paste from Word".

The standard DocBook XSL stylesheets (not the work of XMLmind) which are used to generate the XSL-FO which is then converted to PDF, seem to not fully support HTML tables, hence the issue you report. On the other hand, DocBook XSL stylesheets seem to fully support CALS tables. Attached sample files shows you the difference between the two kinds of tables. <TableCols.xml><TableCols.pdf>
