jdrux Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi there, I'm trying to figure out how to align text within a table so the columns are aligned to a decimal point. In Adobe InDesign this can be done using Tabs, but I can't seem to access Tab Stops within a table in Publisher, only when using the Text Frame Tool. Does anyone have an idea how I could accomplish what I'm trying to do? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdrux Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 Thanks! I figured out another way around it. Using a right justification the decimal point seems to line up perfectly even if the 2 numbers after the decimals are different numbers. Something I don't think Adobe does...

The only problem I ran into was if I wanted to adjust the tabs I would have to copy/paste the text from the table into a text frame, make the adjustments, then copy and paste the new tabbed text into the table.

Palatino Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 It works for me with the menus: Your tab points seem too big to me. I have designed something similar and chosen the point size of the small font. Quote Thanks to DeepL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
