In our XML->ConTeXt->PDF workflow, we've encountered a few intermittent
problems when using split natural tables. I'm not able to post the original
documents in which the problems are manifesting, but below is a document that
reproduces one of the problems. The first page of the document is full of
text, pushing a split natural table with five rows and a header to the top of
the second page. However, only the first row appears on the second page, and
the rest of the table is continued on the third page.
I'm using a stock ConTeXt 9/28 distribution, but this problem can also be
reproduced on live.contextgarden.net.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong or help me debug this problem?
These natural table bugs are the only thing stopping us from deploying our
ConTeXt workflow.
Cheers,
Mike Santy
