It's difficult because it only append somes times on the middle of 
a long report...
But i catch it !

You'll see that i use LongTable even if they are not long, because i use 
a generic library.


from reportlab.platypus import BaseDocTemplate, Frame, Paragraph, NextPageTemplate, PageBreak, PageTemplate, Spacer, KeepTogether, Flowable
from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import A4, landscape, portrait, cm
from reportlab.lib.styles import getSampleStyleSheet, ParagraphStyle
from reportlab.lib.enums import TA_LEFT, TA_CENTER
from reportlab.lib import colors
from reportlab.platypus.tables import TableStyle, LongTable, Table
f=open('/tmp/t.pdf','w')
frame = Frame(2 * cm, 2 * cm , A4[0] - 4 * cm, A4[1] - 6*cm)
doc = BaseDocTemplate(f, pagesize=A4)
doc.addPageTemplates(PageTemplate('i',frame))
style_para = getSampleStyleSheet()['Normal']
style_para.spaceAfter = 12

elements = []
for z in (3,6,3,5,12,7,3,4,6,3,8):
    elements.append( Paragraph('toto',style_para))
    elements.append(LongTable([('x') for x in range(z)], repeatRows=1))

doc.build(elements)
