Table structure disappeared in Calibre

[bmwr1200c]

using XeLaTeX I created a pdf book with many tables. When I added that book to Calibre and pressed view, all the table structure disappeared. Now I see plain text.
Is there a function that I need to turn on or off to retain the tables structure in the document.
thanks for your help

Since calibre's viewer is essentially a ePub viewer, when you view a PDF in calibre it does a conversion to something more akin to ePub. Any conversion of PDFs in calibre is full of known problems. If you want to view a PDF with its tables etc.. intact then uncheck opening the PDF using the internal viewer (Preferences - Behavior) and it will default to whatever PDF viewer you have setup on your computer.
