Editing tables

You can edit recognized tables in the Text pane. The following commands are available:

  • Merge table cells
    Use the mouse to select the table cells to be merged and click Area > Merge Table Cells.
  • Split table cells
    Click a table cell to split and click Area > Split Table Cells.
    This command can only be applied to table cells that have been previously merged.
  • Merge table rows
    Use the mouse to select the table cells to be merged and click Area > Merge Table Rows.
  • Delete cell contents
    Select the cell or cells whose contents you want to delete and press the Delete key.

By default, the table editing tools are not displayed on the toolbar. You can add the table editing tools to the toolbar in the Customize Toolbars and Shortcuts dialog box (click View > Toolbars > Customize... to open this dialog box).

For detailed instructions on how to add buttons to the toolbars, see Toolbars.
