Ever since support for tables was introduced in Word 4.0
(Actually, ever since I started using my Mac for Desktop Publishing),
I have been waiting for Page Layout programs to support this
feature.  I DO NOT WANT to save every table in my document as a PICT
and individually place them.  How can publishers of high end page
layout programs ignore this.  Although both PageMaker 3.02 and
XPress 2.12 claim to import Word 4.0 documents, neither can deal
with Tables.  Does Design Studio correctly handle this?  How about
Interleaf or FrameMaker?
