Tables - why are headings in different font?

Here's the output.

Here's the asciidoctor source (second table down).

Why does the header row come out in Times Roman (or whatever it is) and the body come out in Helvetica (or whatever that is)?

It's not obvious to me after rereading the 'tables' part of the manual!

thanks for any pointers

The text in the cells of a head row do not get wrapped in a "p" element. Therefore, you need to style the "th" element inside of the "thead" element. This style is missing from your stylesheet.

You'd need something like:

thead th.tableblock {

font-family: "Open Sans", "DejaVu Sans", sans-serif;

}

otherwise, it inherits from body (which is set to Noto Serif in your stylesheet).

Cheers,

Re: Tables - why are headings in different font?

I had various th.tableblock blocks, to which added the font-family; that fixed it. Thanks!
