I am rather new to Evernote, and agree with the previous posts: it is necessary to be able to change row height and cell padding!
Evernote is not used to present nice tables to others but to get structured overview of tables - which is not possible when the table scrolls over several screens.
I also find that Evernote in general wastes space, but it could be me not finding the options - in the table, it looks as if the line spacing is 1.5 instead of 1 - I would like to be able to set this as well!
Hope for fixes soon, as I otherwise like the program.
