Long captions exceed the page margins in PDF documents instead of autowrapping to the next page.

Bug description

In PDF documents, combining a large or long image with a long caption causes the caption to overlap the page number and exceed the page margins instead of wrapping it to the next page.

It is worth noting that I am building my thesis document with Quarto, and that I am explicitly using lists of figures and tables, which I positioned in accordance with thesis regulations. I am adding the captions for figures and tables within code chunks and cross-referencing them, like in the example below.

Steps to reproduce

To reproduce this issue, one can create any Quarto document (e.g., a book project), and add a figure that occupies a large portion of the page, and include a long caption. An example of this content in the .qmd document follows below:

# Preface {.unnumbered}

This is a Quarto book.

For the book YAML, they can be as simple as these ones.

Expected behavior

I expect the caption to wrap up to the next page without requiring resizing the figure or shortening the caption.

Actual behavior

In PDF documents, combining a large or long image with a long caption causes the caption to exceed the page margins instead of wrapping to the next page.
