Graphics, Figures & Tables

I am running into an issue with the interaction between longtable and include graphics. It appears that if include graphics floats onto the next page longtable doesn't realize this and makes text run off the screen.

Everything works fine if I remove the graphic or if I change longtable to tabular. Unfortunately changing to tabular isn't an option since I am using pandoc to make the table.

Thanks to anyone that can help. Not sure if this is a bug that was recently introduced or ...

I have found the issue. There is a bug in longtable that it doesn't work when floats end up on the same page as a table.

You have to change a few lines in the longtable.sty file. I'm surprised more users are not running into this issue.
