What those tables state are;

The wrap plating thickness (beginning at the hole wall plating extending
.984 mils away from the hole edge) on the foil (or flashed) plated surface.

Plating shall be continuous and not less than .472 mils from the hole edge
to past .984 mils on the surface. 

I would caution using or applying the term "overhang" as that often means
one plated area ending, another beginning (i.e. button plating perhaps).
Wrap plating is not overhang, overhang in some instances is cause for
rejection.

The intent here is to have a "continuous" amount of plated copper from
within the hole wall extending onto the surface which will provide a very
robust connection (after additional plating i.e. pattern or panel plate)
between the via and surface features (i.e. pads, traces, etc).

I talked to my board house about this.

I believe the source of confusion is one of spec terminology.

In figure 3-13 the words " Minimum Wrap " are used to describe
the copper coming back away from the barrel wall.  Shown as 25um.

For lack of a better term I used the word "overhang ".

In table 3-2, the same words " Minimum Wrap " are used to describe the
thickness of the wrap. Shown in Figure 3-13 as "Minimum Copper Thickness"

An improvement to table 3-2 would be to use the same words in both places.

For example Table 3-2 "Minimum Wrap " could be changed to read
"Minimum Wrap Copper Thickness".

Thanks
Dave
