For some characters you can handle it by using [[http://orgmode.org/manual/Special-symbols.html][Special symbols]] in the tables for example this lines up correctly: | hi | there | a | b | c | |----+-------+---+---+---| | \laquo{} | \raquo{} | \pi{} | \check{} | | [[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-symbols.html][Here]] are the symbols. You can also list them by calling `org-entities-help'. > does anyone have a a good mono-spaced to recommend? DejaVuSansMono. With Symbola as a fallback: (set-fontset-font "fontset-default" nil (font-spec :size 20 :name "Symbola"))
