I am trying to reduce the size of a wide table to match the width of my text for my thesis. I have looked at other posts but none of the code seems to work for me. I have tried different combinations of the \textwidth
and \resizebox
commands but have had no luck. My code is as follows:
\begin{table*}[h]
\resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
\begin{tabular*}{\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}llllllllll}\toprule
LFA&Lithofacies&Juv.\ \%& Juv. size (mm)&Lithic\ \%&Lithic size (mm)&Matrix\ \%&Ves.\ \%&Ves. Av\ \%&Ves.\ \ size ($\mu$m)\\\midrule
1&mLT&95--100&2--11&0--3&3--7&50--60&8--23&15&30--3000\\
1&Lf&98--100&2--48&0--2&5--16&15--25&12--24&19&12--2000\\
2&bLT&80--99&2--18&1--4&10--39&15--60&2--33&13&119--23500\\
3&mlLT&65--90&2--52&10--17&3--71&15--70&4--58&17&6--11300\\
3&l(n)LT&65--95&2--76&4--35&5--1670&20--30&4--8&15&134--3200\\
4<f&71--87&2--8&11--29&5--25&60--70&-&5--25&-\\\bottomrule
\end{tabular*}}
\caption{Summary of measured characteristics of juvenile lapilli and lithics clasts, and vesicle size and percentage for each lithofacies association in the diatremes.}
\label{tb:Table 2}
\end{table*}
I would very much appreciate any help as I am getting frustrated wasting valuable hours on this problem! Thanks in advance, Holly
