marc.b Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone. First of all: nice piece of software. Second: Please be kind, english is not my native language, therefore I make some mistakes and maybe don't understand difficult thing. I use macOS (10.15.4) and Affiniy Publisher (1.8.3). I' just writing a documentation with about 120 pages. Each page has one huge textframe - linked to the next page. In my document I have some tables. Most of them are only 2×4 or 2×6 (col×row). But some are very long (2×20 - with header). And the text in it is long, too. So the whole table didn't fit on one page. Therefore I had to split manualy. Now I have to change some text at the begining, my text get's longer, text wraps over pages, and my splitted tables aren't correct splited now. I want one table which wrap itself over pages (with header on the new page) / textframes. Is it possible to do this? regards Marc Edited April 6, 2020 by marc.b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Tables can only exist on one document page and there is no way to flow the content from one table to another. marc.b 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc.b Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 Too bad. But thanks for that answer. Now I didn't need to search any further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 You’re welcome. It’s worth pointing out that Publisher is a very young application and its functionality is being expanded and added to quite often so what I said above may not be true for long.

marc.b Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 Just now, GarryP said: It’s worth pointing out that Publisher is a very young application .. Oh yes. I remember this every time I use it. And I'm happy that in the young version the applications run so nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Izzard Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I really need to be able to link tables across columns and even different pages in Affinity Publisher. I have a document created in InDesign where this is no problem at all, but when exported as .idml and opened in Affinity Publisher, the content of the table does not show at all and the columns are completely greyed out. I wouldn't mind if the .idml opened and the content could be seen and could be edited without the column links working - but as I can't see the content to edit it, it is completely unusable. I'm wondering if there's any update on when this functionality might be added to Affinity Designer, please? Regards Ralph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
