My second issue is with the tables. I assume there is no perfect way for the program to detect tables and leave them as they are.

In a 2-column pdf, I generally prefer to reflow into 1.

But,

A. Sometimes there are pages in landscape mode with a full blown table.
B. Sometimes there are tables occupying half of the page and then followed by two columns.

In my experience, the conversion is butchering the tables in these scenarios. These also tend to happen in 1 column articles in some occasions. Is there any way to prevent this?

For example:

A: Leaving a selected page as it is and converting/reflowing the rest.
B: Manually selecting a section of one page (for a half-pager table) and reflowing the rest of the sections on that page.

It will be perfect for me if I can solve this issue.

Again, many thanks.
There is not presently an option to treat a cropped region (-cbox) differently from the rest of the document (e.g. not re-flowed). I could think about how to do something like that. I believe Adobe Reader DC allows you to overlay graphical markings into a PDF, so you could use that to add boxes around your tables, which will prevent k2pdfopt from re-flowing them.

Edit: See this newly created help page on the topic...
