tables - automatic positioning without manual page-break settings

christin
Hei,

I want to do the following at once and automatically:
  • First, a table should be rotate. This is possible with
    @page {prince-rotate-body: portrait}
  • Second, because the table is large, the table should be fill the page area (completely).
  • And third, the table should be well-placed into the text flow without I have to set a manual page-break (before) at the table element. Thus, the aspiration is
    • to fill the page areas completely with text
    • and place the table at an advantageous position (which can be differ a little from the notation in the XML file).
Have Prince a mechanism to do these?

Many thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Christin

Your last requirement is not possible yet, as we currently don't have a mechanism to combine page floats with named pages. We hope to add support for this in the future.
