Export to IDML - table error

Question

Hello,
we're having problems with the export to IDML atm. When we export an Indesign file to IDML, the stroke weight differs on some parts of some tables.
This is an image of the original INDD file:
where I've highlighted the stroked table line which is 2pt.
When we export to IDML, we get the following:
Here, the stroke weight for the 7 last columns of the first table are different. We can put them to 2 pt manually, and that will make them look the same as the original.
We can't find any styles or other reason in the original INDD file why the IDML would have this issue.
I've tried this in both CS5.5 and CS6, both with the exact same result.
Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? The document is several 100 pages, and manually checking the tables for this is a lot of work.
Please note we need the IDML file as we're a translating company, and we can not translate INDD without first creating the IDML file for our translation software.
Kind regards,
Geert

Hello,
This is a bit worrying for all those who have to go the IDML route to retrieve a document opened in a newer version of ID in error.
Sorry I can't really help with an explaination of what might be going wrong.
I am intrugued to know why you are using IDML to get the text, is it for translation?
P.
Edited to say.
Oops, sorry, you do say you are a translation co.
Still, there must be a better to get at the text.
