Re: How do I make tables in Xara
Great question and perfect timing.
I recently did the same "paste it as a metafile" from Word into XXP because it was so fast and convenient. I grouped the data and resized it to fit the space. Looks exactly the way we want it to.
The rest of the file is all XARA, including a couple simple tables using lines and rectangles to shade behind. Did not make individual CELL rectangles. Used lines to create them. Used tabs to line up text.
Are there any DOWN SIDES to pasting the one table as a metafile?
The table would be a PAIN to recreate. But if necessary, I do have time to do it before the file goes to the printer...
