How to make full page table

Post by k_sukhum »

Can anyone suggest me how to adjust table to full page. I means table width always= \textwidth and table height always=\textheight. I try try to place \rule{0pt}{10cm} in tabular ,it works but if i change paper size or add more text in table i must change \rule{0pt}{...} every time.

I just want to know how to setup it onces.

Thanks

A table with the width of the text body can be done with tabularx. The height depends on the content. If necessary, fill the table with empty rows.

Dear Thorsten, Thanks for your reply. But that's way i already try it.

The problem is I want to have a template with a full page height table (like quotation ). Inside table have item(s) which I'll add manually.I want to add only item(s) not empty row(s) cause i don't know how many row(s) remain. Now I must trial and error ,so it waste time.

If I have the way to build this template , it's will save a lot of time.

Have any idea?

Thanks

(Sorry for poor English)

Now I am confused. What about a quotation environment (internally a list) in this context? Perhaps you should first clarify if we are talking about a tabular form or a list.

Sorry ... not quotation environment. I means quotation is a paper to offer price for sale something.

sorry for my mistake.

thanks
