How to repeat a table header line on all the pages of a document where the table appears

This is the default option in LibreOffice when you create a new table. If you are working on an existing table or if you use a template, follow these steps:

1. place the cursor anywhere in the table;
2. right-click to display the contextual menu and select Table Properties... ▸ Text Flow [tab];
3. Under the Text Flow tab, check ☑ Repeat heading;
4. set the number of lines you want to repeat; and
5. click OK.

To modify the default option:

1. Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice Writer ▸ Table;
2. under New Table Defaults select (un)check Heading and Repeat on each page; and
3. click OK.
