Table Resizebox with lualatex

Question

I'm porting my original Latex file to include Lualatex code, as I'm reading an input JSON file. I'm unable to get 'resizebox' to work with luacode, without it my table shows up but I want the table aligned to textwidth like in my original tex file. Any leads pelase? JOSN:

{
   "ID":"ProjectionParams",
   "tableEntries":{
      "PROJECTION":"UNIVERSAL TRANSVERSE MERCATOR (UTM)",
      "SEMI-MAJOR":"0",
      "INVERSE FLATTENING OF REFERENCE ELLIPSOID":"0",
      "SCALE FACTOR ALONG THE CENTRAL MERIDIAN":"0",
      "WORLD MAGNETIC MODEL":"0"
   }
}

Answer 1

It looks like you wish to create a table whose overall width is equal to \textwidth and which has two equally wide columns, both of which are supposed to allow automatic line wrapping. If this interpretation is correct, the \resizebox, the c column type, and the \multicolumn instructions are all superfluous and/or extraneous. Just load the tabularx package and use its eponymous environment.

Oh, and PLEASE DON'T USE ALL-CAPS TERMS -- UNLESS YOU WANT TO COME ACROSS AS WANTING TO SHOUT AT YOUR READERS.
