I have this issue with a table in pages, the text always begins about 2cm from the left. Does anyone know how to get the text to aline the text to the left?
And when I try to make it smaller:

Take a closer look at your list section. You have Geen and Geen Opsommingstekens (None and No Bullets) but where the Indent should be 0, you have it set to 1,63 cm. That is the cause of your unexplained indent in the cells which show no other reason for it. You have a blank list forcing that indent.
Any tab characters in the cells?

Check the Layout tab to verify that Text Inset is <= 4 pt and your First or Left indent is 0.
From cell A1… downwards, not the entire A column as you have shown. Sorry, I should have been more clear.
Good afternoon, Joanna. Sometimes, Pages remains an enigma and forces one to take the approach you have chosen — a different document. That would appear to be your path forward.
Best wishes for 2025.
Did you select each entire column and then reset the list indent to 0 cm? Otherwise, clicking any adjacent cell would show that same 1,63 cm indent. Is each column formatted as text and not Automatic or Number?
Thank you for your response!
This is my layout for the table:
Hi Ian,
No tabs at all. I really can't figure out what the issue is. I tried to make the table anew but the same thing happens:
When selecting the column I don't even get that part:
I thin kit has something to do with the layout because when I paste it to an other document I don't have the issue:
Hi,
I did try that but when I change it to 0 it jumps back to 1,63cm as soon as I klick away from the cell.
Waybe it does not work with nummer characters?
Not sure I'm following, if I change the text inset to 0 it changes it back as soon as I klick away. I am guessing the problem stems elsewhere.
How do I align text in table to the left on Pages app?
