The first paragraph of my message stated the reasons why: I have a
table which is bigger than print size both horizontally and
vertically.

So I've found out - The only work-arounds that I've been able to find
is to have a series of vertical tables aligned next to each other and
specify it to break before each table ... not the greatest way to do
it but untill CSS v10 comes out (joke) it'll have to do.
