Subject: Re: Tables on spreads

[Cathy Giddens]

I've struggled with this same problem,  for a table that spans the double spread, and runs over 10 double pages. I had split the tables into one table for each page, but this was painful, ie, 20 tables in all.

I have just recently set these up as two FM Tables, one for left page content and one for right page content. I have set up a master page for the right page with Flow tag B, the left hand table goes into Flow tag A, and the right hand table goes into Flow tag B.

I use several duplicate Paragraph Tags for the right side, with the same font and spacing as the left, so that the empty paragraphs at heading/sub-heading rows on the right hand pages have the same attributes/row height, but don't end up in the TOC, eg, Heading1PlaceHolder.

This might not work with how you manage your table content, but having just worked it through successfully, and not seeing anyone else suggesting it, I thought it might be worth putting up to the list.
