Converting tables to layout grids

Once you have created a table and filled it with content, you may decide that you'd prefer to use a layout grid rather than a table. You can easily convert a table to a layout grid in the Layout editor. Nested tables and cells in the parent table that contain text or an object convert to layout text boxes, which can be easily dragged around the layout grid. Alternatively, you may choose to convert a layout grid to a table if you wish to edit and tweak the layout grid's various table properties with the Table Inspector. See Converting a layout grid to a table.

To convert a table and any nested tables to a layout grid:

In the Table tab of the Table Inspector, click Convert. If desired, customize the appearance of the layout grid and layout text boxes. For information, see Using the layout grid and Adding content to the layout grid.
