Yes, you do NOT need Adam DiCarlo's fix if you are using the latest
versions of JadeTex. Sebastian fixed the problem with, I believe,
version 3.3 or 3.4. (He is now up to 3.6.) The home page is at:
http://www.tug.org/applications/jadetex/
I had this exact problem in the e-smith manual and it was fixed
by using the latest version of JadeTex. Once you have that installed,
you can add these two lines to your DSSSL customization layer:
(define %cals-cell-before-column margin% 3pt)
(define %cals-cell-after-column margin% 3pt)
(those are found in dbtable.dsl.) It worked fine for me.
