I've also noticed that with the "DisplayGroup" tags, the table titles (THEAD) are rendered in the body font (e.g. Times) - where before (with "Par") they are rendered in the title font (e.g. Helvetica). Also, the paragraph alignment on the left hand side is very ragged - i.e. doesn't line up very well at all. With the "Par" alignment is a lot better - although not perfect. My next step is to start to dig into the differences between version 1.53 and 1.54 and try to see what the signficant differences are. Then to try to put in something along the lines of "if backend is the TeX-backend then do the 1.53 behavior otherwise do the 1.54 behaviour". I have no idea why the changes have been made (it's not clear from the changelog, to me at any rate); but I suspect that they will have more to do with the RTF and HTML backends than the TeX one. I'm under the impression that Norman Walsh uses RTF/HTML backends more than the TeX one! I've never used footnotes in tables - so I've no idea what the impact will be on this problem. But simply editing the .tex file in vi and doing ":%s/DisplayGroup/Par/g" works around the problem OK in all our documents - i.e. it allows {pdf}jadetex to run and the heading/title font is correct.
