Dear Org experts, 

I am trying to fit a slightly wide latex table into a beamer 
slide in org. Below is my current solution and I was wondering 
if anyone can offer some advice on improving it. 

     #+begin_scriptsize
     #+ATTR_LATEX: :align p{1cm} p{0.5cm} p{1cm}
     |           |     |     <7> |
     |      Site | Ind | -log10.pval |
     | 123279713 |   1 | 6.006102 |
     | 123279713 |   2 | 6.274326 |
     | 123279713 |   4 | 6.210920 |
     | 123279710 |   4 | 97.163695 |
     | 123279710 |   5 | 208.841892 |
     #+end_scriptsize

In this solution, the issues are: (1) <N> for column width 
doesn’t seem to round text for latex output, and (2) I need
to define column width in addition to <N>. 
I’d like to seek a solution that just shrinks the table to fit 
the text width without this fiddling. 

Many thanks, 
Zhihao

first:
you can set the font size in the #+ATTR_LATEX: line with 
#+ATTR_LATEX: :font \scriptsize

second:
If you want to get the numbers rounded, you can either
(a) use babel or
(b) use the spreadsheet capabilities.
In both cases, you'll generate a new table which you want to export

example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* orig table							   :noexport:
#+name: origtable
|           |     |     <7> |
|      Site | Ind | -log10.pval |
| 123279713 |   1 | 6.006102 |
| 123279713 |   2 | 6.274326 |
| 123279713 |   4 | 6.210920 |
| 123279710 |   4 | 97.163695 |
| 123279710 |   5 | 208.841892 |


* the table formatted with babel
This (untested!) used to work, but due to a bug [fn:1] does not.

#+name: formatorigtable
#+begin_src R :var origtable=origtable :colnames yes
  origtable[,3] <- format(origtable[,3], digits=3)

  origtable
#+end_src

#+ATTR_LATEX: :align p{1cm} p{0.5cm} p{1cm}
#+results: formatorigtable


* the table formatted with calc/orgmode
This is quite complicated but works.

|           |     |     <7> |
|      Site | Ind | -log10.pval |

Thanks a lot Andreas. Is there a way to globally 
shrink/resize table for latex export without having 
to define column width like this 
“:align p{1cm} p{0.5cm} p{1cm}” ?
I am hopting to do something like width=\textwidth
and leave the rest to org for finding suitable font 
sizes.

For that I'd let LaTeX do the job and use

  \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{}

as in

#+LaTeX: \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{
|           |     |     <7> |
|      Site | Ind | -log10.pval |

| 123279710 |   4 | 97.163695 |
| 123279710 |   5 | 208.841892 |
#+LaTeX: }

Best,
Andreas

Beamer allows for shrinking of a whole frame to ensure it fits:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Frame title
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_optimisation: shrink
:END:

| my | table  |
| et | cetera |
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The shrink option can also specify a percentage, as in "shrink=20".

Thanks guys, in the end using R to round numbers and latex 
resizebox to shrink table fonts as Andreas suggested works 
best for me. 

Cheers,
