Page break functionality to define/preview where pages start and end #22

To my understanding, pages break automatically based on the length of the content. However, these breaks aren't always conveniently located and adding new lines is a trial and error process.

For print exports, would it be possible to add a page break command/object that defines new pages when printing?

Further, would it be possible to get a preview of layout of the pages that will be printed as we edit documents (getting closer to a WYSIWYG experience), perhaps as a toggleable view?

A user-set page break is on my list of things-to-do. It hasn't been very close to the top of that list, but I may revise that.

The idea of a print preview had not entered my mind. Creating such a view would be significantly slower than Hurmet's other operations and I'm not sure that I want to go down that road. Some testing would be necessary before I commit to any such project. Don't plan on it happening any time soon, if ever.
