Using Lyx, I would like to produce a pdf output so that the size of the pdf is just big enough to accommodate my table (instead of a full A4 page). Is it possible? Thanks.

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

You could use pdfcrop to automatically crop the white space from final pdf, so the new pdf will have the natural dimensions of the table.

Thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't seem to work with Windows (at least easily), so I finally used Briss.

Thanks for the information regarding Briss.

Btw. here's a version of pdfcrop which should run on Windows too: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/pdfcrop. Perl is required, there's a free version for Windows: http://www.activestate.com/perl.
