I have to design a table in XSL FO, and the client would like
to have the overall layout like in the following image:

Looks to me like tables without gaps inside of table cells of a table
with gaps.
My question is about the gap between some of those cells (in
this image between "sub-tables" A, B, C and D, and the cell "Type
of activity".) While in the "sub-tables" the borders should be
collapsed.
What is the best approach for this problem?
I would implement the sub-tables as individual tables.
I thought to use a table with a gap between its cells and
without borders collapsing, its cells being sub-tabels which have
border-collapse="collapse". Do you think it is a good idea?
Yep!
Is there something easier? What is the easiest way to set the gap
width between the sub-tables?
Since gaps are table-wide properties, I think embedding tables is
best, and I haven't seen any tool support problems with embedded tables.
I hope this helps.
