How to change caption position in Quarto typst document?

Questions

I am creating a Quarto document in Rstudio with format set to typst in the yaml. When I make a table the header is at the bottom of the table, but I want it at the top. It is easy to do when the format is set to html or pdf, but not when the format is set to typst. I really prefer the look of the typst pdf.

The yaml of the document looks like this:

title: "Untitled"
format: typst
editor: visual

Any guidance will be highly appreciated.

Hey @Deon, welcome to the forum! I’ve moved your post to the Questions category, as you’re asking for help. I’ve also changed your question post’s title to better fit our guidelines: How to post in the Questions category

For future questions, make sure your title is a question you’d ask to a friend about Typst. :wink:

Hello @Deon, thanks for the example. It would help if you showed us the difference between quarto and typst’s output and what you prefer.

On my side, I get this

which has the header on top?

It could be that Deon meant “caption” instead of header. Typst default is captions below the figure and the table. I also would like to have the caption of a table before the table. Anyone a suggestion on how to do that? Thanks.

I believe @Deon solved his issue. See Position of Table caption in Quarto typst - #6 by mRtine - Publishing Your Results - Posit Community. You can try modifying the typst template.
