Yes, we tried to find a consistent implementation of multipage rotated containers but it doesn't turn out to be useful. If a block-container is rotated or if both dimensions are specified then it generates one area. The proper way to markup landscape tables is to use landscape-oriented (or rotated) pages. Exactly what Ken Holman's stylesheet does. <http://www.cranesoftwrights.com/resources/psmi/index.htm> David Tolpin RenderX
