Preventing a page break
To prevent a page break inside a certain element, set the page-break-inside property of that
element to avoid:
l Select the element (see "Selecting an element" on page 227).
l On the Format menu, select the respective element to open the Formatting dialog.
l
In the Breaks group, set the inside property to avoid, to prevent a page break inside the
element. This is equivalent to the page-break-inside property in CSS; see CSS page-
break-inside property for an explanation of all available options.
Adding blank pages to a section
How to add a blank page to a section is described in a how-to: Create blank page on field
value.
Master Pages
In Print sections, there are often elements that need to be repeated across pages, like headers,
footers and logos. In addition, some elements should appear on each first page, or only on
pages in between the first and the last page, or only on the last page. Examples are a different
header on the first page, and a tear-off section that shows up on the last page.
This is what Master Pages are used for. Master Pages can only be used in the Print context.
Master Pages resemble Print sections, and they are edited much the same way, see "Editing a
Master Page" on the next page; but they contain a single page and do not have any text flow.
Only one Master Page can be applied per page in printed output.
When a Print template is created, one master page is added to it automatically. You can add
more Master Pages; see "Adding a Master Page" on the next page. Initially, the original Master
Page will be applied to all pages, but different Master Pages can be applied to different pages;
see "Applying a Master Page to a page in a Print section" on page 370.
Examples
The following how-to demonstrates the use of Master Pages to show terms and conditions on
the back of the first page of a Print section only: Showing a Terms and Conditions on the back
of the first page only.
The following how-to shows how to use Master Pages to add a tear-off section to the first page
of an invoice: A tear-off section on the first page of an invoice.
