With the columns width issue fixed, your tables will look fine
Thanks, I'm soooooo glad for you (and everyone else here), I don't know what I'd do without you (all of you)! For this book, I think what I'll do is just "indent" them the same amount that I've indented all the various poems and "blockquotes" in my text, and at least achieve some offset from the left margin that way, as well as some consistency with how I've been typesetting everything else. That should work out okay, I'm sure.

Gawd, I have sooooooo many tables to fix up and re-do now, though! At least as far as inserting specific code into each <td> tag -- having done it the <colgroup> way at first, I won't be able to just do a simple search & replace. :/

Oh well -- worth the effort, though, and I'm glad I realized this before I continued on with the next pile of tables that I still have to do now.

Thanks again, Rubén!
