Change the cell padding of table cells
By changing the cell padding of a table cell, you can adjust the space between the border and contents of that cell. When designing a form, you can change the cell padding of the cells in layout tables and repeating tables. When filling out a form, you can change the cell padding of cells in the tables that you inserted into certain types of rich text fields.
- Right-click the cell that you want to change the cell padding for, and then click Table Properties on the shortcut menu.
When filling out a form, this option may be unavailable for a table, depending on the design of the form.
- In the Table Properties dialog box, click the Cell tab.
- Under Cell padding, enter the specific measurements that you want for the cell padding.
