I can do either one but not both together. Here's a gist with a long, wide table: https://gist.github.com/wdenton/f11acf2e5257b29789f806b854d0709e If you take that and export it to LaTeX it will be long (on two pages) but not sideways, with some columns are cut off on the right---the float is being ignored, it seems. Using the float on its own does work, and this appears in the output: \begin{sidewaystable}[htbp] But when the longtable is there, it's just this without any sidewaystable: \begin{longtable}{rrllllll} Is this a bug? I assumed they'd work together out of the box, but maybe I need to do something special. Bill -- William Denton :: Toronto, Canada :: https://www.miskatonic.org/ Caveat lector.
