Re: oowriter, tables copying

Well, it seems as I thought

I need to join several documents into the one 'report'. Whole the text (paragraphs) I can reformat into the same style. But since the source documents contains tables with different (and unknown) formatting I need to do exact copy of the tables unless I want to loose tables readability. Sp no templates are possible.

I know that it is a problem. I though I was able to copy and 'rename' all the automatic styles into the 'report'. But after copying only one source document with a table into the 'report' document (no automatic style naming collision) I looked at the 'styles.xml' files of source and destination. Looks the same (if the order of attributed doesn't matter) but the borders in the resulting document disappeared!.

If you are able (and want) to help me please look the the following lines:

<style:style style:family="table-cell" style:name="Table1.A1">
<style:properties fo:border-bottom="0.0069inch solid #000000" fo:border-left="0.0153inch double #000000" fo:border-right="none" fo:border-top="0.0153inch double #000000" fo:padding-bottom="0inch" fo:padding-left="0.0597inch" fo:padding-right="0.0597inch" fo:padding-top="0inch" fo:vertical-align="top" style:border-line-width-left="0.0007inch 0.0139inch 0.0007inch" style:border-line-width-top="0.0007inch 0.0139inch 0.0007inch" style:writing-mode="lr-tb"/>
</style:style>

For me it should mean that the cell HAS to have the border. Especially that it looks like respective line in the source document. But it hasn't!

Why?

I realize that the oo styles are very complicated and probably I do not know something...

But what?
