No, it hasn't any issues with tables at all. In fact, unless I am very much mistaken, tables are not inside a <p> tag when you export a table from Word.

You choose whether or not to add a doctype to the files in the ePUB with the plugin. If you don't use a doctype, it will not use named entities.

**UPDATE** I just checked and Word does indeed not place a table in paragraph tags as I suspected. They are on their own and cells can contain paragraphs. So, nothing strange in itself.
