+Note that the defined column widths are always considered as the minimum column
+widths. If the contents don't fit, the given column width is increased up to the
+longest content length. That's why in the previous example the first column has
+a ``13`` character length although the user defined ``10`` as its width.
+
+You can also set the width individually for each column with the
+:method:`Symfony\\Component\\Console\\Helper\\Table::setColumnWidth` method.
+Its first argument is the column index (starting from ``0``) and the second
+argument is the column width::
