How to use blank table
What is blank table?
A blank table is a sheet divided into rows and columns that you fill in with your own headings and data. A common layout has 4 columns and 10 rows, with a bold header row across the top. People print blank tables for schedules, checklists, inventories and simple spreadsheets on paper.
How the blank table is laid out
The page is divided into evenly spaced columns and rows, with a heavier line under the header row. The header cells are empty so you can write your own column titles, then fill the rows below with data.
Choosing columns for your data
Four columns suit most lists — for example date, item, quantity and notes. If you need more columns, print the page and rule extra vertical lines, or edit the SVG to add columns before printing.
Using tables for tracking and planning
Blank tables work for schedules, budgets, attendance, checklists and inventories. The grid keeps entries aligned, and the header row makes each column self-explanatory.
