Frequently Asked Questions
How do I align columns in markdown tables?
Use colons in the separator row: left-aligned (---), right-aligned (---:), or center-aligned (:---:). Our tool handles this automatically through the alignment dropdown.
Can markdown tables have merged cells?
Standard markdown doesn't support merged cells (colspan/rowspan). For complex tables, you may need to use HTML tables within your markdown document.
Will the markdown work on all platforms?
Markdown tables are supported on GitHub, GitLab, most static site generators, and many CMS platforms. However, some basic markdown parsers may not support tables.
