This is the same as my experience, and it makes sense because turning on prettification does not take care of the alignment. The problem I have is exactly related to what you described below, i.e. the table alignment after a realignment. > On the other hand, realigning the table (by pressing tab in a cell) produces > the expected alignment: > > | a | b | c | > |---+---+---| > | α | | | > I have a different experience for this. In my case, after a realignment (by pressing TAB or C-c C-c), I got | a | b | c | |----+---+---| | α | | | instead of | a | b | c | |---+---+---| | α | | | It looks like that a greek letter is considered to be a double-wide symbol but displayed as a single-wide one. > which in turn looks wrong when prettification is disabled: > > | a | b | c | > |---+---+---| > | \alpha | | | > > Does this match your experience? If so, I don't think it's a bug, as much as > a limitation of prettification. > > Clément. This is surprising as I can reproduce the issue with a clean init file. Btw, I am using org-plus-contrib package (20160822) with emacs 25.1.50 on a mac (10.11.6). Jiang
