This wish has a workaround, but has not been granted |
Description
Right now, if I print an article, page break is not satisfactory — it cuts in two the photos, or it leaves the title on the previous page and the text body on the following.

Thanks, Matt, but I find it a little bit too much work… I was thinking about something more automatic…
Now I have 106 pages that should be arranged like this, and the number is still growing. Automatic page break would be the only practical solution to this.
Thank you anyway! :)
