When converting markdown tables to docx with pandoc is there way to put a border on the table in the docx file?

I'm successfully converting markdown to docx, including table conversion.

I would like converted tables to have a border and single space line 
formatting.  Is there any way to accomplish this?

You need to have a custom docx template which has the styling on the 
default table.

Thanks, Daniel, I have this and it is working perfectly for font and 
heading styles.  I'm not sure how to set up this up for template styles in 
the docx file. I tried to put a table in with borders, but this did not 
work. Any ideas?

Hey there, I have an update.  Daniel was right, I could modify the Table 
style in word (took a while to figure out how to do this `1. click on the 
table, 2. click on table design, 3. modify the design. NOTE: Pandoc only 
works with the "Table" style in Word.

I successfully was able to get the border to show, as well as the table 
margins and table indent, set.  Which is all great.

Have one/two more issues to tackle. As I'm using APA style guidelines I 
have a first paragraph indent set for normal text. This indent is being 
applied to the text in my tables. This means my text looks terrible. Also, 
the tables are not auto-sizing to content.  My workaround is to manually 
apply a "table paragraph" style to all my tables after the pandoc 
conversion. Is anyone aware of a way to set the table paragraph and size in 
the reference docx?  From what I've read thus far, this does not appear 
possible. I'd love to be proven wrong.

Re: When converting markdown tables to docx with pandoc is there way to put a border on the table in the docx file?

[John MacFarlane]

Is "Table Paragraph" a standard word style that is meant for
paragraphs inside tables?

If so, then it seems to me we should change pandoc so this is
used automatically.

Sorry, I thought I replied to this.  No, it is not. Table Paragraph is a 
user-generated style.  I can't figure out how to edit the default style to 
set allow content to wrap and paragraph formatting in the reference docx.  
If anyone has an answer I'd be VERY grateful.
