How to 'anchor'(?) table to bottom/left corner of page?

Question

Hi.. new do InDesign... what I want to do is position the bottom/left corner such that it is 0.25" up and 0.25" from the edge of the bottom/left corner of the page. I also want the table to be exactly 2" wide.. columns evenly spaced. I assume it would be similar to if I needed to position a page number in the bottom corner somehow?

I'm sure what I need is a good reference related to positioning elements.. but thus far, stumbling around the UI is not intuitive... any tips?

Thanks!

You could use the Text Frame Option’s Inset Spacing: Screen Shot 20.png

Hi @DoYouLikeHam , It doesn’t sound like you want the table to be anchored and flowing with text right? If you want it to be permanently positioned in the lower left corner of the page, you can create a 2" wide text frame with its Text Frame Options Align set to Bottom: Screen Shot 6.pngThen Insert Table and the default width will fill the text frame: Screen Shot 7.png Screen Shot 8.png
