However, you'll have to use the graphics program to edit any changes. You
could also try doing it in Word and then capturing it as a bitmap...

Subject: Tables in PageMaker 6.5
Hi all,
I used the Adobe Table Editor to create a table to go in a software
manual,
and it basically worked, (though it crashed my computer several times),
but
after I created a postscript file the Adobe table did not make it through
the post script translation process. It basically caused the ps file not
to
print certain sections. Once I got rid of the tables the ps file worked
just fine. Can anyone suggest a way to get a table into a PageMaker
document that will not cause problems with postscript? I am using
PageMaker
6.5.
