Subject: [WebAIM] Easier way to artifact repeated header row for multi-page tables in PDFs

This seems to be my week for PDF questions. I did try to find the answer online, but was unsuccessful. And all the PDF experts seem to be on this list, so I thought I would ask here.
Is there an easy (or automated) way to artifact the repeated header row for a multi-page table in a PDF? I know how to manually do it, but I do a lot of Finance docs with super long tables (e.g., 46 pages), so was wondering if there was an easier, automated way. It’s super tedious to artifact the header row for 45 pages; there has to be a better way. Maybe an API? Does CommonLook make it easier?
Thanks in advance.
