I have a table which has quite a lot of text but want to keep it on a portrait page. I am using the tabularx environment and managed to get all I want into the columns, but now the spacing between the words is super ugly. I'd rater define the orientation of my text in the table in each column, than having it justified. How can I change that? I am pretty new to latex and I still struggle a lot. I went through some similar questions already, but I only make it worse trying to fix my problem.
