Feature request: page breaks

[ryan-williams]

It would be neat if some markdown, HTML, or CSS sentinel value could be interpreted by mdpdf as a "page break."

I love this tool, but often spend a lot of time futzing with CSS, or tweaking copy, to e.g. get a heading to flow to the next page (rather than dangling at the end of a page, with its content starting on the next page).

A couple options, off-hand:

• --hr-page-breaks: interpret Markdown --- (normally an HTML <hr/> tag) as a page break
• <div class="page-break"></div> or similar

In the meantime, I'm using a spacer element like:

<div style="height: 10em"></div>

While debugging, a border is helpful:

<div style="height: 10em; border: 1px solid black"></div>

You can do page breaks using this

<div style="page-break-before:always;"></div>

I've referenced back to @nuckle's answer a few times in the last 6mos, it seems to work in general (not just with mdpdf) when saving web pages to PDF. Ty!
