I've been told than an extension is the way to go for these two needed features:
1. Add a string ['(Continued)'] to a table header if the table spans multiple pages. Note these tables are part of the content and can start anywhere in the page. They could be seen more like paragraphs or blocks with a title. Any other solution to this problem is acceptable. 2. Separate page number display for a subsection. IE - master document is page 4 of 7, but subsection is page 2 of 3. Please let me know if I'm missing any existing functionality that solves these problems. I am planning to look into writing an extension some day. An example would certainly help. In the meantime, someone mentioned using iText for final stage add-on functionality like this. Does that make any sense here? Thanks a lot, Matt BTW, if anyone is in there poking around with the redesign, and feels like creating a table-add-something-different-to-header-after-break property, or even table-omit-header-before-break, I'd certainly love you for it.
