Change the look of table text

You can change the appearance of the text for the entire table or just for specific table cells.

Change the appearance of all table text

You can set the font for the entire table.

  1. Tap the table, tap Format button, then tap Table.

  2. Tap Table Options, then tap Table Font at the bottom of the list.

  3. Tap a font name.

    If you want to apply a different character style (for example, bold or italic), tap Info button next to the font name, then tap a character style. If you don’t see a specific character style, it’s not available for the font.

  4. Tap Smaller or Larger to change the font size.

Change the appearance of text in selected cells

You can change the font, color, size, and other attributes of text in table cells.

  1. Select the cells with the text you want to change.

  2. Tap Format button, tap Cell, then use the controls to select a typeface (bold, italic, underline, or strikethrough).

  3. Tap Text Options, then use the controls to change the size, color, or font.

Note:  To apply a character style, select the text you want to change. The character style controls aren’t enabled if only the cell is selected.

Wrap or unwrap text in a table

If the cell isn’t wide enough to display the text on one line, you can wrap the text so that it appears on multiple lines in the cell.
