This is great! Thank you. It sounds like it'd resolve this issue: https://github.com/ebdrup/html2pdf.it/issues/72

Yes I believe so. Sounds like we could put up for debate best css class name to use to enable it, but we have a project with critical need for this functionality so are using a patched local copy until something official is available.

I see my reply above was from another project. Sorry for the confusion.

Regarding the naming, it might be a good to use 'page-break-before', 'page-break-after' and 'page-break-inside' since those are standards [ https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/p/page-break/ ]. Could those be used in addition to 'html2pdf__avoid-page-break' and 'html2pdf__page-break' so older projects don't break?

Those sound better, in particular if they are a standard. They imply some additional patching though since this PR essentially is only for page-break-inside. Another issue is whether to keep the css class approach or try to mine it from the element style itself instead.

Changing html2pdf__avoid-page-break to eg html2pdf__page-break-inside is trivial on my end - it's early enough in the project to have minimal impact. I will probably do that proactively.

If I have time I will update, but ultimately it may be up to eKoopmans who has been silent so far.

... Hello! Sorry for the long silence.

Thanks @jbryan76, this is a great addition. And @campsoftware I appreciate the info about the CSS standards, that gives a clear direction on how to go forward. Though I'm not sure how to implement avoid on break-before and break-after...

There are also 4 different pagebreak PRs now, so I'm looking into combining all 4. Do either of you see any issues with adjusting an element's margin (as in #138) instead of injecting resized divs?

I'll probably keep the class-based .html2pdf__page-break in as legacy, for now at least, but focus on using the CSS standards going forward. I'm also planning to add options to avoid breaks on all elements, or on a list of specified elements that can be passed as an html2pdf setting.

@eKoopmans, do you have a timeline of when you'd have time to combine the PRs and release the page-break changes?

@ZabbyCapurin I have a draft mostly finished, I'll submit it as a PR for testing before merging anything in.

Hey @ZabbyCapurin @jbryan76 @campsoftware, I've put up a new page-break PR #153, take a look if you have a chance. I haven't had time yet to do any testing with it, so please let me know if there's any issues.

Resolved by #153, closing!
