Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Table overlaps with page number

[bicek]

Hi all,

I am using code written below and experiencing some issues with tables and page numbers. I expect table not to overlap with page numbers but it does. How can I solve this problem ? Thanks.

Code: Select all

\begin{table}[htbp]
\centering
\scriptsize
\caption{T1}

\label{tab:table1}

\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{p{1em} X | X X X X X X }
\toprule
...
\midrule
...
\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\end{table}

The table is probably too big. Does it take up the whole page?

Use longtable to split the table to two pages. That way, you can also use a bigger font size, which people are actually able to read

First, thank you for the answer.

Yes table takes up the whole page and its too big.

I have implemented your suggestion about longtable but, in this case I couldn't have any labels or tags and table is not referenced by my template thesis file. So, I understand that I have to use table environment and require another solution using table environment. Do you have any alternatives ?

Thank you

longtable works with captions, referencing works as well. Hundreds of people use the package everyday.

So, either your template messes stuff up, which indicates a problem with the template, or you aren't using package longtable properly. Please prepare a minimal working example so we can reproduce your issue.
