 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Unfortunately, there’s no definite solution for this, as this is often theme-
   specific. In your case, the way how the theme sets the padding in the cells might
   play a role. Please add this to the “Custom CSS” textarea on the “Plugin Options”
   screen of TablePress:
 *     ```
       .tablepress th,
       .tablepress td {
         padding: 8px;
       }
       ```
   
 * This might already help.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
