I have a long table in latex. I used the commands: 

\begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{cccccccc} (..the table..) \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{table}

However the table length exceeds the page margins and the boundaries and it cuts it off... I would like to continue it on the next page. I have tried the longtable package , the \pagebreak and \newpage but nothing works.

I would appreciate any help!!

  • 'longtable' will work if you do it right. Remember not to put the longtable inside a 'table'-environment. 'longtable' has its own caption-command. Commented Aug 1, 2014 at 11:36
  • @Sveinung : Yes, I have put the longtable inside the table environment. The outcome is the same as before.. A long table on a single page which exceeds the page boundaries. \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \begin{longtable}[c]{lclccccc} .... \end{longtable} \end{center} \end{table} There are no errors it just doesn't work.

  • @ekyr you mis-read the comment (and the longtable documentation) do not use a table environment with longtable. Commented Aug 1, 2014 at 11:54
