A template for eBooks

With the attached document create an EPUB and compare the tables on the source with the EPUB.

1. Simple tables lose columns and are unusual. Example on page 20 of an example source document.

2. In a more complex table gets over bars inserted in every cell. Example on page 21 of the example source document.

Confirming with

Version : 6.4.3.2
Build ID : 747b5d0ebf89f41c860ec2a39efd7cb15b54f2d8
Threads CPU : 8; OS : Mac OS X 10.15.4; UI Render : par défaut; VCL: osx; 
Locale : fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); Langue IHM : fr-FR
Calc: threaded

Used the default EPUB export options in the export dialog.
Read the resulting EPUB file with Apple's EPUB reader.

To me, it seems that the spanning of the table is incorrectly exported.

Possibly also some kind of misinterpretation of cell borders in the second table example on page 21 of the ODT.

Not limited to macOS

Possibly dupe of bug 115375

It's working if you choose Export As... -> Export to EPUB... -> And from the options choose Layout method: Fixed.

With Reflowable method it is still not working.
