New CTAN Package: tablefootnote
by CTAN Announcements 28 Oct '11

28 Oct '11

On Wed, 26 Oct 2011 H.-Martin Münch submitted the tablefootnote package. Summary description: Placing footnotes in tables License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Provides the command ablefootnote{...} to be used in a table environment, where footnote{...} would not work and would need to be replaced by footnotemark in the table and footnotetext{...} after the table environment ended. Additionally the counters for footnote and (when the hyperref package is used) Hfootnote would need to be adjusted manually. Just using ablefootnote{...} in the table does all this automatically. Known issues: sidewaystables (from the rotating package) do not get their footnotes at the same page. Pages with tables with footnotes, which are rotated with the (pdf)lscape-package, will break the hyperlinks to the table-footnotes on that page. When a table with (table)footnotes floates to another place, its footnotenumbers are not automatically adapted. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tablefootnote .
