What is a common method to adjust the width of a column in a table?

Adjusting the width of a column in a table is most commonly done by clicking and dragging the column edge. This method allows for real-time visual adjustment, enabling users to see the changes as they make them. When the cursor is positioned at the edge of a column, it changes to a double-sided arrow, indicating that you can click and pull to widen or narrow the column. This intuitive action facilitates quick adjustments to accommodate different types and amounts of content within the cells.

Other options, such as adjusting line spacing settings, changing document margins, or selecting font sizes, do not directly affect the width of a specific column within a table. Line spacing impacts the vertical spacing of text in paragraphs, while document margins adjust the space around the entire document's content. Font sizes affect the size of text but do not provide a method for resizing table columns directly. Therefore, the most practical and efficient choice for modifying column width is indeed by clicking and dragging the column edge.
