Set Width of Table Column

Post by CJFugate »

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to set the width of the columns in a table. I just want two columns and I want the right edge of the right column to be fixed against the right side of the page. I've read the tabularx documentation, but it might as well be written in Russian.


Thanks!

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Please show what you have tried so far in form of a self-contained and minimal example.

Actually the manual is not so complicated. Perhaps you can tell us which part you wanted to apply to your problem and what you did not understand.
