Hello Please look at the following two examples
\documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{amssymb,amsfonts,amsmath,amsthm} \begin{document} % BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL test \begin{tabular}{|l|l|} this & today\\ \hline that & tomorrow\\ \hline \end{tabular} % END RECEIVE ORGTBL test \begin{comment} #+ORGTBL: SEND test orgtbl-to-latex :lend "\\\\ \\hline" :environment tabular | / | <> | <> | | | this | today | | | that | tomorrow | \end{comment} % BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL test2 \begin{tabular}{cc} this & today\\ \hline that & tomorrow\\ \hline \end{tabular} % END RECEIVE ORGTBL test2 \begin{comment} #+ORGTBL: SEND test2 orgtbl-to-latex :lend "\\\\ \\hline" :environment tabular | / | <c> | <c> | | | this | today | | | that | tomorrow | \end{comment} \end{document} The first one nicely generates \begin{tabular}{|l|l|} but the second one \begin{tabular}{cc} How can I achieve \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} thanks Uwe Brauer
