[reportlab-users] Large table with totals in page footer

[Tony Middleton]

I've now got a solution to this - example attached.  Thank you to Robin
Becker for his help.

To recap, I need to create a document which is one big table
approximately 600 pages long.  On the footer of each page I need to
include something derived from the rows printed on that page.  I need to
include page breaks at certain points;  there doesn't seem to be a way
of doing this within a table so my document is a sequence of separate
tables which has made the solution more complicated.

The solution isn't terribly elegant but it seems to work.

Regards

Tony Middleton
