To Copy and Paste a Table
Copy and pasting a table into a text box works seamlessly, preserving most formatting from the source document. For example, this table is cut and pasted directly from an existing spreadsheet.
Add a text box to your layout with the Text Box tool. With the text box selected, paste in your content (use the keyboard shortcut CMND-V or choose Edit > Paste from the main menu). Using the handles on the text box, resize it to fit your text (or right-click to use the context menu Fit To Text command).
To Create a New Table from Scratch
Alternatively, with the text box selected, choose Text > Table… from the main menu to create your own. Adjust your table settings in the Table window.
