Thanks, Roger. That's useful information to have.

It looks like I could, as a last resort, recreate my tables in Inkscape. And I might even be able to add the text to charts in Inkscape rather than Excel. But I have 21 charts and 34 tables, some of which contain a lot of data, which is why I didn't use HTML tables. I'd be looking at a LOT of work to do it all in Inkscape so I'm hoping I can figure this out.

There's something I haven't found yet. A couple of hours ago, one small SVG table displayed as sans serif but I haven't been able to figure out what is different about that file or the PDF and spreadsheet it came from. I suppose it could be something random that I can't reproduce, but that doesn't seem likely. The chart that was created on the same tab in the same spreadsheet from the data in that table displays its text as serifed.
