Roman numeral for tables

Post by lucataschini »

Hi All,
I've a problem I could not solve simply surfing on the net, but it might be very silly (sorry).

I need to label my tables (only tables and not figures or pages) with Roman numerals. Does a
precise command exists? Something like \tablenumbering{roman}?

thank you to all!!!
luca

Hi Luca,

you could use \Roman to change how the table counter will be printed:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand*\thetable{\Roman{table}}
