Pdfmake: Adding page breaks in the doc definition

[osaatcioglu]

I looked around the source and the examples but I couldn't really figure out how to add a page break in the document. I will appreciate to document it here if it is implemented. Thanks.

You can set _pageBreak_ on any element to 'after' or 'before' (depending on where you want the break to occur).

_images_ and _table_ examples use this attribute:

(...)
    'You can also fit the image inside a rectangle',
    {
        image: 'fonts/sampleImage.jpg',
        fit: [100, 100],
        pageBreak: 'after'
    },
(...)

and

(...)
    { text: 'noBorders:', fontSize: 14, bold: true, pageBreak: 'before', margin: [0, 0, 0, 8] },
(...)

Thanks a lot for prompt response. I can swear that I searched for the pageBreak keyword in the examples. But, it is really there. Anyway, great work! The library is really powerful. I wish I could help with the documentation.

@osaatcioglu Can you show me your code, how did you do it with dynamic data?
I also having same problem. unable to find a solution.
Trying to make it work since last 3 days.
Even asked a question here https://github.com/bpampuch/pdfmake/issues/1070 also. You can see my code there.

I converted an old unix program to node, so i replaced all \x0C (Form feeds) to page breaks like this
content:text.split(/\x0C/).map(v=>{return {text:v,pageBreak:'after'}})

however i had to remove the page break from the last page, or a blank page was inserted

any other idea?

Did you try to check if it is the last character set of the array?
