Hi All,

I have a problem where a longtable row sometimes enters the footer area of my Lyx document. Any ideas where I can start to debug? It is not going to be feasible to "tweak" the output by hand because the document is generated from a database, i.e. I have to fix the inherent problem and not the symptom.
More of a latex problem I think - try a latex forum.
Thanks for the tip, will have a look into it.

What does this longtable contain? Text only is really supposed
to work - or is there complicated stuff like minipages
or graphics in the cells?
The longtable contains "complicated" stuff like minipages. Will try to remove these and see what happens.

Also, a wrong lower margin setting could cause this.
Maybe the margin doesn't leave enough room for the footer,
or the footer contains some big stuff? Try bigger margins.
The document is a "Test Procedure". A requirement is that any page that can be "filled in" must have a place for the Tester and the Witness to sign. I have placed such a "signature block" in the footer of the applicable sections. It is quite large of course. It also means that the document contains one footer for the start of the document and another for the "tests" section. I have adjusted the footer size by using "\advance \textheight by -6\baselineskip" in ERT just before the "test" section starts. Is there a better way of doing it? I am using the geometry package to manage the margins.
