Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ wrap text in table

[pawhan11]

Hello,

I have very large number that goes outside my cell:
Any Ideas how to make this number fit into my cell?

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
%packages
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage[table,xcdraw]{xcolor}
\usepackage[footskip=60pt]{geometry}
\usepackage[polish]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{helvet} 
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}
\normalfont
\geometry{   	
        a4paper,
        left=25mm,
        right=15mm,
        top=40mm,
	headheight=27mm,
        bottom=23mm,}
\newcolumntype{L}[1]{>{\raggedright\let\newline\\\arraybackslash\hspace{0pt}}p{#1}}		
\newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\let\newline\\\arraybackslash\hspace{0pt}}p{#1}}
\newcolumntype{R}[1]{>{\raggedleft\let\newline\\\arraybackslash\hspace{0pt}}p{#1}}
{\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1,2}				
\definecolor{bgcol}{rgb}{0.63, 0.79, 0.95}			
\begin{document}
\vspace{-0,5cm}
\begin{table}[!h]
		 \setlength{\tabcolsep}{1mm}
		\begin{tabular}{|L{3mm}| L{70mm}| L{25mm}| L{23mm}| L{10mm}| L{25mm}|}
			\hline
 	&	Short data	&	asd	&	123123123123123123123123123123123	&	1	&	66666	\\ \hline

		\end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{document}

You simply made the cell to small - you defined a fixed width. Would you like to have it automatically adjusted?

The table design is not optimal, with each number in a framed cell, which makes reading harder. Johannes once posted a nice explanation presentation: Improving data tables We could help with table design. If you like, post the complete table, perhaps somebody would make a suggestion.

I am rewriting some PDF using Latex and it has to be identical. This table has to be fixed size so auto adjust is not an option. I want text inside this cell to adapt

For wrapping long numbers, you can use the seqsplit package:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{seqsplit}
...
% in the table:
... & \seqsplit{123123123123123123123123123123123} & ...

Or, for a whole column without writing \seqsplit within cells:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{collcell}
\usepackage{seqsplit}
\newcolumntype{L}[1]{>{\raggedright\let\newline\\\arraybackslash\hspace{0pt}\collectcell\seqsplit}p{#1}<{\endcollectcell}}
