title: R-LaTeX Wide table
body: <p>I'm writing a report with sweave. I have to put-in a very wide table:</p>
  
  <p>from R</p>
  
  <pre><code>dim(myData)
  &gt; 50 60
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The R code I wrote to generate the LaTex table is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>print(xtable(myData, caption="my wide table", label="tab:myTab", digits=3),
         tabular.environment="longtable", caption.placement="top",
      ## floating.environment="sidewaystable", ## a trial
         size="\\tiny", table.placement="", floating=FALSE)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is that the table is too wide for the dimension of the page, so, is there a way to divide the table in different pages, such as LaTeX longtable environment but, by the width?? </p>
  
  <p>I hope I have been able to explain my problem.</p>
  
  <p>Regards</p>
