Details

For HTML tables, the values "center", "left", and "right" all justify the table as expected. It is important to note, however, that "left" and "right" will cause subsequent elements to be rendered next to the table, not below it. To render the table with left alignment without this side effect, use "none".

In LaTeX output, both "right" and "left" justify to the left. This may change in the future if I find a resolution. Using "none" also results in left justification.
