Formato de tabla LaTeX para legibilidad de páginas A4

Formato de tabla LaTeX para legibilidad de páginas A4

Estoy buscando incluir una tabla en un documento en una sola página con tamaño A4, asegurando que el texto siga siendo legible. Intenté usar \scalebox, pero el texto se volvió demasiado pequeño y se alteró el ancho y el alto del cuadro. Como soy relativamente nuevo en LaTeX, me encuentro un poco estancado y agradecería cualquier sugerencia u orientación que pudieran ofrecerme sobre cómo lograrlo. ¡Gracias!

Respuesta1

Lo {...}que viene después \begin{tabular}es la especificación de la columna: le dice a lateX qué columnas vienen en su tabla. lsignifica una columna ajustada a la izquierda sin saltos de línea. Afirma que hay 42 columnas de este tipo, pero solo usa 1 columna. Esto parece extraño, pero en realidad no causa el problema. El problema es que lno permite saltos de línea, por lo que hay que introducir todos esos \\saltos de línea arbitrarios. En su lugar, puede usar p{\linewidth}para decir que la columna tiene el ancho de su página y TeX calculará automáticamente los saltos de línea. Pero si es solo una columna, en realidad no es una tabla y no debes usar tabular (aún puedes usarlo \begin{table}si quieres llamarlo tabla, pero no uses tabular). Pero introduciremos algunas columnas.

Como habrás notado, \adjustboxdestruirá \scaleboxel tamaño de fuente y la relación de aspecto, y debes evitarlo. También cambié a [!htpb], [p]ya que la tabla es tan grande que es realmente la única posibilidad.

La idea general de diseñar una tabla es que si estás repitiendo información, debes intentar moverla a una mejor ubicación. El problema más importante en este caso es que cada fila termina con "Lag #", lo que sugiere que "Lag" debería ser una nueva columna. La primera columna ahora puede cambiar al Xtipo de tabularx, lo que significa que la columna de retraso tendrá el tamaño de su elemento más ancho y la Xcolumna ocupará el resto del ancho.

Algunas de las entradas de una categoría comienzan con el mismo texto. Moví ese texto al encabezado de esa categoría. Algunas de sus entradas son idénticas excepto por diferentes retrasos. Los combiné en una sola entrada y puse ambos retrasos en la columna de retrasos.

No veo el motivo de los números iniciales, así que los eliminé.

Hacer todo esto (y algunas abreviaturas demasiado agresivas) me permite cambiar \tinyhasta \footnotesize, y la Tabla 1 cabe en una sola página a4 con los márgenes predeterminados de la geometría (realmente deberías habernos dicho cuáles son tus márgenes). Si yo fuera usted, creo que me detendría ahí y desharía algunas de mis abreviaturas.

podemos hacer unpocoEs mejor mover las categorías a una nueva columna y anidar algunas tabularxpara las muy repetitivas entradas "Recesión" e "Hipoteca" (y las entradas de las Antillas Holandesas). Eso nos ahorra una línea o dos, para que podamos llegar a \smallla Tabla 2.

Otros elementos:

  • He reorganizado varias categorías para mover variables similares una al lado de la otra.
  • Has escrito demasiadas palabras en mayúscula. Deshice la mayor parte de eso.
  • -es para un guión. Si quieres un guión, debes usar ---. Y --para una variedad de números.
  • He introducido booktabsy sus reglas.
  • El consejo habitual es que el título de una tabla debe ir arriba y el título de una figura debe ir debajo.
