Table: item center alignment














0















I have a 5-column table made using the tabular environment. This is the code:



documentclass[12pt]{article}
usepackage[a4paper, margin = 15mm, tmargin = 25mm]{geometry}

begin{document}

begin{tabular}{@{}lllll}
textbf{item 1} & textbf{item 2} & textbf{item 3} & textbf{item 4} & textbf{item 5} \
textit{description 1} & textit{another description} & textit{more words} & textit{blahblah} & textit{nothing}
newline
vspace{3ex} \
textbf{item 6} & textbf{item 7} & textbf{item 8} \
textit{this should be centered} & textit{so should this one} & textit{and this}
end{tabular}


end{document}



Attached image shows what it looks like:

How do I make the italic descriptions to be centered under the bold items, rather than being "left-aligned"?

  • Change begin{tabular}{@{}lllll} to begin{tabular}{@{}ccccc}?

  • Just use the column type c instead of l
