Hi Heiko,

Jay was wondering why character style is included. The table style as 
implemented today makes the text of lines italic, for instance, but is expected 
to affect only background and border.

The <table:table-template> element has children: <table:background> 16.20, <table:body> 16.19.6, <table:even-columns> 16.19.9, <table:even-rows> 16.19.7, <table:first-column> 16.19.4, <table:first-row> 16.19.2, <table:last-column> 16.19.5, <table:last-row> 16.19.3, <table:odd-columns> 16.19.10 and <table:odd-rows> 16.19.8. Besides <table:background>, which refers to a style of family type 'table', all others refer to a style of family type 'table-cell'.
And in section "Table Cell Styles" (16.36.4, part 1) you read,

<quote>
Table cell styles are <style:style> elements that have the family table-cell.

In addition to table cell properties, table cell styles may define paragraph and text properties. These are applied to paragraphs contained in a table cell unless they are overwritten by paragraph styles that are specified by the paragraph elements themselves.

The essential part is "text properties". You can read in section 16.27.28<style:text-properties> the huge number of its attributes.

In the schema it is in line #13290 to 13302.

The old table "AutoFormat Styles" have included text properties, and such are always needed to style a table. So I do not understand "but is expected to affect only background and border".

Kind regards
Regina
