FW: FOP with large tables

It is important that the generated PDF will be printer friendly - when printing the pdf no data is lost and columns and rows are not broken in the middle. I dont mind though that if there is not enough room for all the columns in the printed page that  the next page will print the columns that couldnt fit in the previous page. The same goes for rows.

XSL-FO provides no facility to allow columns to spill onto subsequent pages if 
there is insufficient room for columns on previous page. Extra rows will 
naturally flow onto the next page when a page is filled.
