How to add two tables adjacent to each other in documents

Overview: How to Place Two Tables Side by Side in Zoho Writer

Want to display two tables next to each other in Zoho Writer without cramming them or creating awkward spacing? There are two effective methods:

  • Text Boxes: Insert each table into a separate text box and remove the box borders to neatly align them side by side.

  • Two-Column Table: Use a single two-cell table, placing one table inside each cell and removing the cell borders for a cleaner layout.

Both approaches give you flexible, visually appealing control over how your tables appear.



Step-by-Step Instructions

To add two tables side by side, one of the following Methods:

Method 1: Using Text Boxes

  1. Go to Insert → Text Box and insert a box.
  1. Inside the text box, insert your desired table and adjust the box’s size as needed.
  1. Insert a second text box to the right (or copy-paste the first one) and insert your second table.
  1. With a text box selected, go to the Text Box tab and choose No Border to remove the border.
  2. Go to the Text Box tab on the left and select the No Border option. This will remove the text box borders revealing only the two tables side side by side.

  3. Two tables side by side, border-free.

Method 2: Using a Two-Column Table

  1. Go to Insert → Table and create a table with 2 columns (1 row).
  1. Place your cursor in the first cell and insert the first table. Do the same for the second cell.
  1. Go to Table → Borders and Shading, and choose No Border for the outer table.
  1. This removes the cell borders and leaves the two internal tables aligned next to each other.
You now have 2 tables created.
