  LTchunksize is the buffer the longtable package uses while it arranges
the table on the page.  If the longtable header or footer fails to fit
in LTchunksize then LaTex/longtable fails to find tokens properly.  It defaults
to 20.  Increasing the value consumes more memory and reduces the time for
LaTex to run.

  The current default invoice_latex template contains the line \LTchunksize=40
in the header between the usepackage and begin{document}
