How do i reduce the font size on a table OR make that table extend the page to the right ?

How do i reduce the font size on a table OR make that table extend the page to the right ?

I have a very wide confluence table of technical information about servers.  However its formatting very badly due to the number of columns and text.

If this was Microsoft Word I would just reduce the font.

BUT I CANNOT SEE A WAY TO REDUCE THE FONT OR EASILY CREATE A NEW STYLE IN CONFLUENCE !

The other solution would be to allow the page to extend to the right and allow a slider bar.

But CONFLUENCE CAN'T SEEM TO DO THIS EITHER !

Can someone please advise or assist here on how to either reduce the font / get a smaller style OR allow the table to scroll to the right so it formats nicely and some columns aren't 3 metres high on the screen....

Hi @Michael Green ,

 

It can be challenge when having a lot of columns. There's some apps that may help in conjunction with excel sheets embedded in confluence. Here's posting on some app suggestions:

Thanks Ben - but this is NOT an Excel spreadsheet embedded in a Confluence page but just a straight Confluence table.

You welcome. Understand. Giving some outside the box though of using excel unless  there's another suggested option that may come up.
