How to Set Gutter Margins Between Columns in a Table
Hi,
I've copied a 3 columned table into a new Word 2013 document. The program I copied from has nice space between each column, but Word has squashed it all together so that when I hide the table lines it just looks like a jumbled mess. Can someone please enlighten me how to create gutter margins in an existing table. I found an option for cell margins, but that seems to create space on all sides. All I want is space in between. So the first column only needs space on the right. The middle needs space on both side and the right needs space on the left. Hope that makes sense. |

You can apply cell margins to only one side of a cell, if that's what you want. You might start off by setting the table default to whatever spacing you require in the middle, then select the outer columns in turn, using Layout>Properties>Cell>Options to reduce the left or right margin.
