Please show all the steps for reproducing this, not just the resulting display. From the rest of your text, I'm guessing that one needs to turn on Org mode, create a table, and populate it with the above contents. But if I do this by hand, I don't see the problem, so maybe I missed some step. It is also important to describe how you typed é, assuming that you typed it inside Emacs. OTOH, if the table was created by importing a file, please tell which bytes stand for é there. Finally, please tell which versions of Emacs and Org you have installed. > I think this might have something to do with multibyte characters. > Running (toggle-enable-multibyte-characters) shows that the é does > indeed take two bytes.

What is your default language-environment?
