How can I make a multi-page table with a single xlsx file?

How can I make a multi-page table with a single xlsx file?

As I understand it, no matter the size of the table, I need to make it fit on the same page, because there is no function to keep it on the next page.

Is it possible to make a table that is larger than one page?

Affinity Publisher 1.8.3

No, it’s not possible to create a Table which exists on more than one page or create a multi-page table. Single-page tables is all we have, so far.

In some circumstances you might be able to use formatting with some tabs to get an analogue but it wouldn’t be a Table, as such.

Thank you so much for your answer.

You’re welcome.
First check in the "Feedback for Affinity Publisher on Desktop" section of these forums to see it hasn’t already been requested.
Then, if not, just add a new topic in there giving as many details and information as you can, stating clearly what you want to do.

Is there a chance to see a function that allows to place an xlsx-table that may exceed one page in an appropriate time? I do a lot of technical documentation and have to import (bigger) tables very often. Coming from Quark, where it is possible to place a table on a page and exceed it to the next page(s) by simply connecting the frames. It´s a text frame then, but it works. Something similar would be helpful.

Besides this I have to say that you did a great job so far, I love to work with the publisher and hope that such missing functions will be available soon.
