Justify the text in your tables – in nine different ways

You probably know how to justify text in Microsoft Word. It is very simple. On the Home tab of the ribbon, there are buttons that let you align text left, align right, center, or align text.

This is of course useful when you want to create a nice looking document. However, you may also need nice-looking tables if you use them.

However, if you create a table to display data, text in table cells will always be left-aligned. The exception is if you write in a right-to-left language – in such cases, your text will always be right-justified.

It is possible, of course, to fix how text is also displayed in tables, it’s a bit more complicated. Specifically, for table cells, there are two adjustments to consider – how to position text horizontally and how to position it horizontally, with three positions each. This means that there are nine different locations to choose from. By default, the text is left-aligned and at the top of the cell.

We show how you can easily change this.
