Subject: Balancing vertical placement of table
Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2010 21:29:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BBC4486D-A49B-4839-B79B-05C56E9B4B81@enquora.com> (raw)

I have a single page layout as follows:

* Landscape + letter page
* Block of multi-line text (variable number of lines) which occupies the left third of the page
* Table with variable number of rows which occupies the right two-thirds of the page

I'm using \framed for the left text block and \placetable for the table. Is their a way to vertically place the table such that one-third of the vertical whitespace (above and below the table) is placed above the table, two-thirds below the table? The number of rows in the table varies enough that a fixed top position looks sub-optimal.

Is it possible to do something similar with the block of text, perhaps using a different top/bottom split for the vertical whitespace?

Are \framed and \placetable the best way to do this?
