12 Tables
Best Practices
- Use tables for tabular content only, not for formatting
- Use the Pressbooks table settings to set the ‘header row’
- Use clear headers
- read the table left to right and top to bottom
- Avoid merged cells
- caption tables with a main takeaway or include a summary if the table is very long or complex
