How to display numbers in the format 12.3 (4.56) in a table column? Of course I could do that :-) But this is part of a software and 99% of the users couldn't do that :-) They want to hit a button... |

How to display numbers in the format 12.3 (4.56) in a table column? The table is autogenerated with a different program in a quite sophisticated way, including the corresponding header. Suddenly having roughly double the amount of columns is technically not possible, that's why I was hoping for a solution without a second column. I can hack it in the sense that I can determine the length of the numbers in the parentheses and fill the 'gaps' with spaces or \phantom commands. Not very elegant, though. Given that siunitx is so sophisticated, I was hoping this could be done with this package. I was quite a bit disappointed it makes so many assumptions... |

How to display numbers in the format 12.3 (4.56) in a table column? Thanks, Tom. I accept this as an answer, but it was not quite what I was hoping for. The second number in my case is just another piece of information, it is not the uncertainty of the first number and therefore the number of digits can be larger than for the first number. I was hoping to use this "uncertainty" construction/approach of siunitx to get the numbers side-by-side. But I see it's not so simple. Nevertheless, your post was very informative, thanks again. |

How to vertically align 'numbers' in a table? [pairs of numbers given as strings] Hi David, thanks for the update. This gives colors for full columns, right? In my 'real application', the table is autogenerated and only cells fulfilling certain requirements should be colored. I do this by writing \color{blue} 4.35 (1.23) (so essentially pasting the color command before the number). With siunitx, this essentially works, but that package changes the numbers in a way which is not clear to me. I just posted this as a different question, see tex.stackexchange.com/questions/114741/… |

How to vertically align 'numbers' in a table? [pairs of numbers given as strings] Hmmm... now I know why I was originally looking for a solution based on siunitx, dcolumn doesn't easily handle colorizing of table cells, see also tex.stackexchange.com/questions/42765/colored-text-with-dcolumn |

How to vertically align 'numbers' in a table? [pairs of numbers given as strings] Very good, thanks David. You should put this (with variable widths) in dcolumn as another column type. |

How to vertically align 'numbers' in a table? [pairs of numbers given as strings] Hi David. Indeed, yes. The last version in the above update shows this (but I had to manually insert \ \,). I agree that it would normally be easiest to use double the amount of columns, but this is not really possible with the program that generates the table (all done automatically...). |

How to vertically align 'numbers' in a table? [pairs of numbers given as strings] Hi David, many thanks. It sounds good, but I'm not sure if I use it correctly. Please see the update of my post. I read in the siunitx manual ("uncertainty"), but it seems strange: Once the content of () contains another dot, S seems to get confused: siunitx error: "invalid-token-in-uncertainty" Also, dcolumn seems to align the uncertainties to the left, not to the (second) dots. Do you know how to fix this? |

Ghostscript 9.07: Error: A pdfmark destination … points beyond the last page Thanks, Heiko. I still don't understand why a) the error is an error and not a warning and b) why it is not suppressed by -q, but your post has helped me in putting it in the correct context. |
