| Dec 23, 2011 at 18:00 | comment | added | MJiller | Thanks for the pointers Ben Lerner. I've done as you suggested. You helped me figure out a bit more about how this site works by your suggestions. I don't understand what you don't understand about sync'ed paragraphs :) But as you've observed, it seems the atbegshi solution will work well for me | |

In any case it sounds like parcolumns is designed with your scenario in mind, and rdhs's solution may be better. If so, you should probably upvote or accept the answer :) | |
| Dec 23, 2011 at 13:05 | comment | added | MJiller | Yes, Ben Lerner, I do need for individual rows to span pages: in many instances the paragraphs I'm trying to keep in sync are longer than one page. The table really seemed the most elegant solution and gave the best preliminary test results--that is, until I put in one of the paragraphs that exceeds page length. Then the results were, of course, unacceptable. It's a shame that limitation is "baked in" to these table packages. Another, less severe, limitation I ran into using table packages was that it seemed page breaks could only occur at table-row boundaries. atbegshi is the better solution | |

| Dec 22, 2011 at 4:36 | comment | added | Werner♦ | Would you be able to mock up an example of how to define the different components of a longtable so that it displays some text "in parallel" as in the OP's description? It will definitely add more value to your answer rather than just suggesting with a question. | |
