Hi Tex;

I think you didn't understand me. You are right, we don't have to export a table as a bitmap and then to import in Inkscape to trace it. What I say is that you have to save the Excel file (with the table) as .pdf and after that, to OPEN that .pdf in Inkscape (the program will ask you what part of the .pdf you want to open). And that's all; the .pdf will be converted into paths and you'll have the table as svg. Watch the table I attach in the following .epub:

SVG Table.epub

This table is the raw result of opening the .pdf in Inkscape. I didn't improved the table at all. So, with a bit of work, the resulting table could be better. So far, this is the best method that I found to convert a table to svg image but, I don't know, could have better ways to do it.

Regards
Rubén
