Outlook 2013 Left Aligning Table
Hello!
I have an email with a content area using VML via backgrounds.cm. The table on the background is left aligning in Outlook 2013 which ignores my set left padding. Screenshot
Here is some of the code for this section.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks so much!

Hi Veronica
Here is the solution i have used this and it works

I might have been seeing the same issue as you were - when I removed the vml for the background, everything aligned correctly. I wasn't able to find an edit to the vml or a change to the css that would make the padding work for Outlook 2013 though.
How I worked around this was to change how I was creating my left/right whitespace - I stopped using padding left/right. Instead, I nested a table with a fixed attribute width equal to how wide the content should display at max. On the table outside of this nested table, I defined the fixed attribute width of the entire section including the whitespace, and used align="center" on the td that contained the nested table. To get the tables to be responsive (for other email clients), I added a media query containing 'width: 100% !important;' for when the tables should start shrinking.
