  ..rigor-table(
    stroke: none,
    column-gutter: (0.5em, 0.5em, 0.5em, 0em, 0.5em, 0em),
    columns: (

        align: horizon + center,
      ),
      (
        key: "particulars",
        display: text(tracking: 5pt)[Particulars],
        align: horizon,
        fill: white,
        width: 10fr,
      ),
