The sad bit is the tables are dynamically created, so I do not have any idea
how large the result will be..

For the time being, I have solved the problem, by doing the following:

    SimpleTemplate = SimpleDocTemplate (filename,
                                        pagesize = orientation ( papersize
),
                                        allowSplitting=0)

Adding the allowsplitting variable set to no.....  But, while that works, I
am not sure if that is the best manner to do this...
