    Hi,
     
    I've noticed there is a problem rendering table borders in xep, in that
    the borders of adjacent table cells/rows overlap, and in xep apparently
    both borders show. This makes the borders between all cells twice as
    thick as the first and last border... For our purposes this is very
    unfortunate, because besides the fact that actual tables look odd, a lot
    of our page layout is drawn using visible table borders.
     
    From what I've heard this has to do with the attribute border-collapse,
    and that xep only supports the value "separate" as of now... But surely
    this must be a rather prominent feature which most users will need to
    solve? So I have two questions:
     

    1. Most importantly: Is there a workaround?
    2. When will xep support collapsing borders?

    Best,
     
    Anders
