Page "LocoScript" Paragraph 11

Users could control placement of text by means of: margins ; indentation ; normal tab stops ; decimal tab stops, which set the position of the decimal point rather than the start of a number ; and left, right or full justification.

Different combinations of these settings, called " layouts ", were automatically numbered, which made it possible to re-use layouts and to make changes that applied to all parts of a document where a specified layout was used.

These facilities could be used for presenting tables.
