How can I make a table span multiple pages?

Hi guys,
I really hope someone can help me out. First off I am a indesign novice. I have primarily been using indesign scripting to take other user's indesign documents and generating dynamic previews and PDFS with indesign server 2014 (it's pretty cool stuff).
Someone gave me an indesign document that has a table that starts off in the middle of the page and depending on how many rows they want the table to be it should bump the overflow'ed table rows to the 2nd page.
In indesign I have tried to link the text frames together. It looks ok in indesign as the linked content shows up on page two.
Whenever I run the script to generate the preview JPEG the table on page 1 gets cut off and doesn't render anything on page 2.
Using a script I was able to examine all the textframes on the page and none of the text frames have their "overflows" property set to true.
What am I doing wrong here? I'm sure there are a million things I'm missing but what are some of the basic things I can look for. I'm totally lost here guys.
Thanks,
Dustin

I'm not familiar with the script you are talking about, but if you want to make Jpegs of your pages, the best route is to export the document as PDF, and then open in Photoshop, where you can save as Jpeg. If creating Jpegs was not your goal, can you explain further?

  • How do I make a table span multiple pages?

    Hello,
    My team and I use a Pages doc with several tables in it. The size of these tables (i.e. the number of rows in the table) change every week. Before upgrading to Yosemite, whenever a table extended beyond one page it would continue on the next with the same headers as the original table. For some reason, the tables now instead"shift" to the next page once the number of rows becomes too much for the current page.... That is unless it is the only table on on the page, in which case it will perform in the desired manner. However, if there are multiple tables on a page, the table will move to the next page, leaving a big blank space where it used to be. I have tried playing with the "Arrange" area to no avail. I can make the table float and create a new table on the next page once the rows become too numerous, but this is not ideal. Has this feature been removed from the new pages or am I just not looking in the right place?
    Thanks,
    mFuture

    Use Pages '09. Pages 5.5.1 is a lost cause.

    As a student, you might be able to get Office for Mac from the college bookstore at a substantial discount. Otherwise, I think your best option for documents that need to be shared with Office users is to get one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice.

  • How can i make a soft return with pages shift enter does not work!

    how can i make a soft return with pages shift plus enter does not work!!

    On full keyboards with a numeric keypad, the key above the right shift is "return" & the one on the numeric section is "enter." On a Mac (or Apple IIgs ) they do have separate functions. On the "mini" keyboards, both names are on the same key, but "enter" is written in smaller letters. I'll have to check to see how that works on another Mac later today.

  • How do I run a table over multiple pages?

    Hi I write TV scripts using a simple two column table which can be many rows long - how can I get Pages to automatically run the table over multiple pages whilst still allowing me to cut and paste and rearrange the script? This is simple in Word and must work in pages but I can't work out how to get it to work. I've tried looking at the Page Break feature but it won't come up from the table?
    many thanks

    At this time, There is no way to drive tables in Pages with AppleScript.
    Do your job in Numbers which allow that.

  • Can I make a document w/ multiple pages?

    I cannot find anything that states that I can create a file that has multiple pages. I am working on a newsletter and need to have at least 4 pages but don't believe that the tiling option is the best and/or only way. Can you please help??

    >but don't believe that the tiling option is the best and/or only way.
    It is the only way without spending more money. I wouldn't call it "best". Rather, "least worst".
    There's is a plug-in for Illustrator from, I believe, Hot Door, that lets you use multiple pages. Basically it manipulates layers.
    Multiple pages is a long asked for feature for Illustrator. Version 13 now still does not offer this, despite all other major competitors having the feature. Some since the 1980s.

  • How best to make a transaction span multiple HTTP requests?

    Hi, all. What is the best way to implement a transaction that spans multiple
    HTTP requests? Many J2EE applications must solve this problem, but I can't
    any guidelines for an implementation.
    Consider an application that implements a multi-step wizard. Each step
    gathers data from the user; step one gets the user's name, and step two gets
    his dog's name. When the user completes the wizard, the application saves
    the user & dog in two entity beans. Conceptually, the application treats
    this wizard like a single, long-running transaction. The transaction begins
    when the user launches the wizard. Submitting the JSP for step one adds the
    Boy bean to the transaction, and submitting step two adds the Dog bean.
    Finishing the wizard commits the transaction. Exiting the wizard or timing
    out causes the transaction to rollback.
    Although the wizard looks like a transaction, the entire sequence of user
    interactions can't be captured in a single JTA UserTransaction. A
    UserTransaction must be associated with a single thread, but each wizard
    step is handled asynchronously by its own execution thread. It's impossible
    to funnel the conversation through one thread that can demarcate the
    transaction. (This would be a pretty dumb solution for other reasons, but I
    don't want to get lost in details.)
    I think the standard way to solve this problem is to store conversation
    state in a stateful session bean (or the http session) and create / update
    both entity beans in a transactional EJB method after the wizard completes.
    Unfortunately, this solution prevents me from leveraging a lot of great
    transaction management features provided by the app server. For example, I
    can't use optimistic concurrency to make sure that the dog object hasn't
    changed in the database between the start and end of the wizard. Also, I'm
    forced to keep track of changes to the dog object in the conversation state,
    then replicate these changes to an entity bean at the end of the wizard.
    Keeping track of state in a stateful bean is pretty straightforward, but it
    seems like there must be an existing solution that leverages the appserver's
    concurrency and state management features. Am I missing something? Is there
    code, a pattern, or an article that describes the best way to implement a
    multi-step process that looks transactional? I suppose WLI does what I want,
    but that feels like killing a roach with a SCUD missle. Thanks for any
    advice.

    I assume from your answer that I'm on my own for implementing stuff like and
    transaction inheritance and tracking object modifications? Well, we'll give you a bit of help on the object modifications. The
    usual pattern is when you're pushing the JavaBean back to the CMP you
    call all the setXXX methods on the CMP bean. Our CMP container will
    check if the value you are setting is the same as read from the db. If
    so, it will not update that column.

    I'd recommend that you include a separate version or timestamp column in
    your db schema.
    Then do something like this:
    Client Server
    1) First HTTP Request
    2) Read current Dog and Boy Entity Beans
    (if any) and copy their values into a JavaBean.
    You want to include the version
    column(s) in the JavaBean(s) along with the data values.
    You probably also want to store the JavaBeans in
    your HTTP Session.
    3) Client proceeds through wizard interacting with JavaBeans
    4) Finish with Wizard, copy JavaBean values (including
    version columns) to CMP 2.0 Entity Beans.
    The version column will give you the optimistic concurrency protection
    that you desire without opening a JTA transaction to span user input.

  • How can I make a table screen-reader accessible?

    I need to make a table screen-reader accessible prior to publishing on the web. Is there any way to make a table accessible in Numbers?

    This is difficult to answer without more specifics. How are you publishing to the web? And which screen reader are you targeting? In general you can get data out of a Numbers table quite easily in csv format (either comma-separated or tab-separated).  With some work in AppleScript you could export it as a table with html markup. Presumably from there you have tools to convert and publish.

  • How can I Reconcile all tables on multiples mappings with scripting????

    I have OWB 9.2.0.2.8
    I have to reconcile all tables and external tables on multiple mappings.
    How can I do it with scripting language, please?
    Thanks very much in advance!!!!

    Good afternoon Claudio,
    Should be something like this:
    foreach mapName [OMBLIST MAPPINGS] {
      puts "Checking $mapName"
      foreach tabName [OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING '$mapName' GET TABLE OPERATORS] {
        puts "Reconciling $tabName"
        OMBRECONCILE TABLE '$tabName' \
          TO MAPPING '$mapName' \
          OPERATOR '$tabName' \
          USE (RECONCILE_STRATEGY 'REPLACE', MATCHING_STRATEGY 'MATCH_BY_OBJECT_ID');
    }If you want to alter reconcile and/or matching strategy, check documentation on OMBRECONCILE in the OWB Scripting Reference.
    Good luck, Patrick

  • How can I make fact table?

    Hi all
    I would like to make fact table in oracle 11g using SQL syntax. how can I do so?
    Is Analytical Workspace Manager available by defult in oracle 10g or 11g?
    Do you recommand good book for implementing star schema or ROLAP? i want the setps and sql syntax examples.
    thanks

    Hi,
    You can make a fact table through any number of ways viz:
    - CREATE TABLE syntax , your table design would correspond to the dimensional model (Star Schema / Snowflake Schema) specifications
    - You can alternately use an ETL Tool like OWB to design your star schema
    As far as I know i dont think Analytical Workspace Manager comes by default with an Oracle DB Installation
    - Read any book you find on Dimensional Modeling to get a hang on building Star Schemas and OLAP Concepts. You would definitely find one such book in "The Oracle documentation library"

  • Problem with tables spanning multiple pages

    I have used Pages early on before Numbers to track my small business expenses vs income. I use tables to manage this by clicking outside the page so it can be unrestricted by text fields but it creates a problem.

  • How to paginate the Report output spanning multiple pages

    Hello,
    We have a Report that has a custom Layout and it shows invoice information.
    Our system has to generate an Invoice per day.
    This Report is printed fine for single day.
    But our users have 2 requests:
    1. To print all the invoices for 1 month
    2. To save them to file.
    At least printing will do for now.
    The problem I got is pagination.
    When I made Month&Year as parameter and user selects 2001-OCT
    to print all invoices in Oct,2001, the Report is unable to print one invoice per page. In between the layout is rolling over to multiple pages.
    Is there a way I can control pagination or any settings?
    Thank you much.

  • How can i print a AdvancedDataGrid in multiple pages with ColumnHeaders?

    Hi all,
    I need to print a AdavancedDataGrid in multiple pages with columnheaders in all pages.
    Rite now, i can able to print column headers in first page only.
    is there any chance to split the ADG into multiple pages with columnheaders??
    Thanks in Advance
    Shravan.

    Shardul,
    Thanks for your help.
    Your logic is working fine when i have a single datagrid.
    What i'm doing here is, i took a VBox(playout) and printing 2 ADG's in that,so the column headers of 2nd ADG are not printing when it continues to next page.
    Here is the sample code:
    custComp1
    custComp2 are ADG's
    <mx:VBox id="playout" width="100%" visible="false" includeInLayout="false"></mx:VBox>
    private function preparePrint():void{
    var x:custComp1 = new custComp1();
    var y:custComp2 = new custComp2();
    x.dataProvider = arrayColl1;
    playout.addChild(x);
    if(arrayColl2 >=1){
    playout.addChild(y);
    y.dataprovider = arryColl2;
    while(y.adg.validNextPage){
    playout.addChild(y);
    y.adg.nextPage();
    private function doPrint(event:Event):void{
    var printJob:FlexPrintJob = new FlexPrintJob();
    if(printJob.start()) {
    playout.includeInLayout = true;
    playout.visible = true;
    printJob.addObject(playout);
    printJob.send();
    playout.visible = false;
    playout.includeInLayout = false;
    is there any way to get column headers when we use printing multiple ADG's in a VBox?
