Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Two Tables in one "sidewaystable" Environment

[leandrocc]

I realize I should have opened a new thread instead of replying to the solved one ( http://www.latex-community.org/forum/vi ... 400#p48400).

My problem is that even when I copy the example provided in that topic, my sideways tables do not respect the left/right margins of the paper. They start right on the edge of the paper.

Thanks for any insights

You should elaborate by what you mean because the code works fine as provided. If it doesn't work for you, there must be some issues on your side that will be hard to comprehend for others. Check the log file for any irregularities.

Of course the code works! My fault.

I'm using \documentclass{amsart} instead of {article}.

Then the tables are not centered. Any workarounds or tips?

(from the top of my head: is it possible to put the tables on separate tex files and then include them in a similar way as I include PDFs, for instance?)

The classes of AMSLaTeX are known to cause trouble like this. If you don't need any special features you can use other classes. Packages of AMSLaTeX can be included in every other class as well.

As long as you use \input to read them from the external files.

After a few adjustments in my code it worked with \documentclass{article}.

Thanks for the help!
