The Adobe Table 3.04 update fixes the following problems discovered in the version of Adobe Table 3.0 that originally shipped with PageMaker 6.5 for the Macintosh:- In Table 3.04, bold and italic text prints as expected to PostScript devices. Text formatted as bold or italic prints normal (i.e., roman) from Adobe Table 3.0. (See Additional Note D in the Readme file included in the archive.)- Text formatted with decimal alignment does not disappear after you save, close, and reopen a file in Table 3.04 or update an OLE-embedded table with Table 3.04. Decimal-aligned text may disappear after you save, close, and reopen a file in Table 3.0, or update an OLE-embedded table with Table 3.0.- When you open a Table 2.5 table with right- or center-aligned text in Table 3.04, the text appears as expected. When these tables are opened in Table 3.0, the text may disappear.- Tints of RGB colors applied to tables in Table 3.04 print as expected from PageMaker. Tints of RGB colors in Table 3.0 tables print lighter than expected from PageMaker.- A system error does not occur if Table 3.04 is open when you close a container application (e.g., PageMaker) into which you've OLE-embedded a Table 3.0 object. Closing a container application when Table 3.0 is open may cause a system error.
