How Do Page Breaks Work When Generating PDFs?
The GetAccept editor follows CSS rules to determine where page breaks occur when converting content to a PDF. Some elements naturally avoid breaking across pages, while others may split depending on length and layout.
Elements That Avoid Page Breaks
Certain elements are designed to stay together when generating a PDF:
Images – Prevents splitting an image across two pages.
Tables – Rows will not break in the middle; the entire row moves to the next page if needed.
Headings – Stay with the content that follows them to maintain readability.
Pricing tables – Ensures all rows stay together within a single pricing section.
Form elements – Input fields and labels stay connected.
Column layouts – Side-by-side content remains intact within a page.
Where Do Page Breaks Typically Occur?
While the system prevents breaking key elements, page breaks are more likely to appear in:
Between pricing groups – If multiple pricing sections exist, a break may occur between them.
Long text containers – Large text blocks may split, but the editor tries to keep headings with at least the first paragraph.
What Are the Priorities for Page Breaks?
The GetAccept editor follows these rules when processing page breaks:
Headers stay with content – A heading will not be left at the bottom of a page.
Pricing table headers stay with the first row – Ensures clarity in pricing sections.
Signature lines avoid page breaks – Keeps signing elements within the same section.
Common Questions
Can I manually insert a page break?
No, the editor automatically handles page breaks based on content layout and structure.
Why does a page break appear in my text block?
If the text is too long to fit on one page, the system will break it while keeping the heading with at least part of the paragraph.
How can I avoid unwanted page breaks?
Try adjusting the content layout by:
Reducing unnecessary spacing.
Reordering elements to keep related content together.
Ensuring long tables or images fit within a single page.
