How to insert spreadsheet table into Writer?
Overview
Steps to Insert a Spreadsheet Table
-
Open your document in Zoho Writer and place the cursor where you want the spreadsheet to appear.
-
Insert a spreadsheet table by going to the menu bar and selecting Insert → Table → Spreadsheet Table.
-
Wait for the spreadsheet editor to load inside the document. You’ll now see familiar spreadsheet controls such as cells, rows, columns, and formula options.
-
Enter your data into the spreadsheet. You can use formulas like
=SUM,=AVERAGE, or apply cell formatting, just as you would in Zoho Sheet. -
Adjust the layout if the table feels too large or small. Use drag handles or table properties to resize and fit it neatly within your page margins.
-
Continue editing your document. The spreadsheet remains embedded and will stay editable whenever you reopen the file.
-
(Optional) If you want to link an existing Zoho Sheet, copy the range you need from Zoho Sheet and paste it into Writer using the Link data with source option. This way, updates in the sheet reflect in your Writer document.
Troubleshooting Tips
-
Formatting doesn’t appear correctly → Some styles may be limited in embedded mode; apply them in Zoho Sheet first, then embed.
-
Editing feels slow → If the sheet is very large or formula-heavy, simplify data or use a static table instead.
