Page Layout ⇒ Suppress Page Number on certain Page

[localghost]

Here is an idea that works: use the floatpag package and its macro \thisfloatpagestyle inside the sidewaystable:[…]

Smashing! This is the stuff I've been desperately searching for. I wasn't aware of floatpag. My approaches by fancyhdr (\iffloatpage) and titleps (psfloats option and \setfloatfoot) miserably failed.

I wasn't aware of floatpag.

I only know it by chance and not for long, yet. I have put it on my “who knows when or if I might want to use it but it sounds interesting” list of packages

Thanks a lot, cgnieder.

There is additional problem I find when I apply the code you suggested. Since the table I use is overfull, it occupies the full page and even bigger when use fancyhdr package,the header and footnotes of the table disappear. Any code can shrink the appearance size of the table, so that the header and the footnotes are preserved on the page? Any suggestion is appreciated.

Any code can shrink the appearance size of the table

Well, you could put the table in a box (in the TeX sense) and scale that box down, but I don't think it will look good:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}

\usepackage{pdflscape}
\usepackage{rotating}
\usepackage{floatpag}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\blindtext
\blindtext
\blindtext

\begin{sidewaystable}
\thisfloatpagestyle{empty}%

\scalebox{.7}{\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|}\hline  
 & rep78 2  & rep78 3  & rep78 4  & rep78 5  \\ \hline  
headroom & 259.99458 & -366.52775 & -1375.5277 & 64.358897 \\ \hline 
trunk & -1301.6058 & 53.217457 & 107.68253 & 319.25439 \\ \hline 
weight & 14.888719 & 5.4869986 & 1.3003615 & 1.1344623 \\ \hline

turn & -1289.3648 & -21.576337 & -453.0486 & -85.001797 \\ \hline 
cons & -27358.645 & 5133.0408 & 10552.075 & -19494.267 \\ \hline 
\end{tabular}}

\end{sidewaystable}

There are some more set screws to reduce the size of the table.

• Decrease of the font size.
• Reduction of the separating space between columns by modification of the length \tabcolsep (default value 6pt).
• Rearrangement of certain cell contents.

Specific help in this regard would require that you provide the code of the concerned table.

Thank you, cgnieder and Thorsten. Your suggested codes work perfectly.
