SOOOO, what you really meant to say isn't that table graphics suck, but that cheap bookmakers or inept boobs put crappy graphics in there that aren't of decent quality, right? I wouldn't disagree with that sentiment.

You do have some odd clients.
Brother, you have NO idea. Today--today--(in 2020, mind you!) I'm dealing with a submitted manuscript that is 99.8K words long and contains...314 paragraphs.

How can that be, you ask?

Well, Wolfie, I'll tell you--it happens because if you type an entire book, like so:

typety-type-type-type-type-type-type. [end of paragraph text]tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab-tab[start of new paragraph text]...

You get a few hundred paragraphs, 11298 tabs (yes, really!) and a file that could never be uploaded at KDP without making a high holy mess of it.

That's the BEST client I'm dealing with so far today. Seriously, this job has probably aged me 25 years in 10.
