Hi,
The example in that section is
\begin{tabular}{p{1in}{\hspace{2in}}p{1in}}
Name: \newline Address: &Date: \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
This example does not compile as written, and should presumably be
\begin{tabular}{p{1in}@{\hspace{2in}}p{1in}}
Name: \newline Address: &Date: \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
That was explained to me by David Carlisle. I would not have known what
was intended. In any case, I don't see why the `@{\hspace{2in}}` is
necessary. The example seems fine without it, and simpler is presumably
better.
