It's of course possible (even probable) that the latex exporter behaves differently from the html exporter in this case (and probably many other cases.) Historically, I believe the latex exporter was the first one and in those days, each exporter blazed its own trail, so inevitably we have a divergence of behavior. The new exporters based on Nicolas's org-element parser will presumably behave a lot more consistently. In the meantime, you can always override the latex behavior with something like #+ATTR_LaTeX: align=|r|r|l|r|l|r| to set the alignment of each column explicitly without affecting the HTML output. Nick
