      Hi everybody,

      I have a question about tables I couldn't find anywhere else.

      I am editing a catalog, with a big table that goes linked from one text box to another, more than 40 pages long. There are one text box each page but now I have to change the layout for a wider table, so one text box should span both pages of a spread.

      Is it going to be a problem during imposition?

      I usually break abjects into two but I guess I can't break a table into two, vertically, right?

      If anybody could help me, I would really appreciate!

      ps.: Sorry about my English… Regards from Brazil!

      I do this on occasion. I normally create an empty column the width of the two spine margins in order to ensure that there's nothing going over the spine. I've never heard of it being a problem. However, I can't imagine that you could do this automatically.

      Thank you for your answer. It is very nice to have someonelse's opinion.

      So, I am doing the tables this way. Fingers crossed!!
