Default Table on top of page breaks the paragraph on previous page

Dear guys

So I have quite a few tables in my large document. Some tables contain multiple columns and rows (spanning from half page to full page tables), and in some there are only two rows, one containing a figure inside a table and in the lower, the legends.

Problem is, many time I put the table on top of a page. On the preceding page, most often is a paragraph still continuing and that should end somewhere below the table on the next page. Almost always, when I put the table on top of page, it breaks the paragraph into two paragraphs which the new paragraph starting below the table (or on next page, when it is a full page table). But I have seen with some tables, it is not the case. Those few flow continuously with the text.

When the table breaks the paragraph, I have to manually remove the indent on the next paragraph so it looks ok when printed. Or I have to leave lot of space on the previous page which makes it ugly.

All the tables have Left align, Around, set to top of margin.
