Convert tables to text

  1. Using the Type tool , place the insertion point inside the table, or select text in the table.
  2. Choose Table > Convert Table To Text.
  3. For both Column Separator and Row Separator, specify the separators you want to use.

    For best results, use a different separator for columns and rows, such as tabs for columns and paragraphs for rows.

  4. Click OK.

When you convert a table to text, the table lines are removed and the separator you specify is inserted at the end of each row and column.
