Does Acrobat Pro 9 support "page-break-before" CSS tag? ie Pagination issues

Hey there
Converting a whole stack of html files to PDF and having some pagination issues.  Titles not staying with images and tables getting chopped in half by page breaks etc.
Thought i could solve it by using carefully placed "page-break-before:always" tags where i wanted the page break.  Works as expected in Safari when i go to print but not when i "File:Create PDF: From File" in Acrobat Pro.  They get ignored.
Here's how they should work:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/page.html#x3
This is a major hassle. I've got over 600 webpages to convert to PDF's and manually entering <br> to force items onto the next page is getting old.
Here's some sample html, paste it into a file, save, open it in Safari and then go to print.  It should print 7 pages.  Open it in Acrobat Pro 9.1.0 and you get one page.

The really nice thing is this would be so useful.  You can attach the tag (page-break-before:avoid)  to a Caption style and always be assured that it will stay with a following graphic when you print the webpage. Or use it to make sure a table doesn't get cut in half.

Nope.  Did the </br> thing. 
Cost me some serious cash.  Very annoying.
I haven't tried it with Safari 5. Acrobat allowed me set page margins, something that Safari 4 didn't allow (didn't support margin css tags).  But acrobat didn't support the pagination and Safari 4 did.
Like i said annoying
I'll see if Safari 5 supports the print margins css tags.
I'll prob get asked to do this again so would like to sort it out

  • CSS Page-break-before is not working in FireFox 4 but worked proper in FF3.x

    I have web app that produces ~10 page sales estimate. To make things look nice, I have added pagination to my CSS files (using page-break-before:always)... this all worked wonderfully in FireFox 3.x... I recently upgraded to FF4 and now it is not working

    Hi there,
    I seem to be having a similar problem, however, the first page break is working, but each page break after that is not.
    The page break is a div that is a dedicated page break layer and the first clearly works, but the remainder of the 12 page report doesn't have any breaks.
    Testing with other browsers shows up 12 pages with breaks which to me indicates a issue with ff4 as I have only recently upgraded to 7 and it used to print under ff3 with all the breaks no problems.

  • Does Acrobat Pro version 9 support Multi-frame/image  TIF

    does acrobat pro version 9 sdk/api support converting multi-fram/image tiff into pdf ?

    Ok I'm probably missing something here.  I found examples and documenation for AVConversionConvertToPDF
    However, it all seems to be in C.  My trouble seems to stem from my not being able to figure what object to declare for which that method is a member of.
    Is not AVConversionConvertToPDF not supported in VB?  Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.
    Thanks for your help
     

  • Why does page-break-before get replaced with br class hcp10?

    why does <br style="page-break-before: always;"> get replaced with <br class="hcp10">
    This issue only occurs when generating an HTML Help CHM file.

    An alternative method can be found in Item 23 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#content.
    Are you saying the code in the source file gets changed? I suspect you mean target files but how are you identifying the change in a CHM? Is the change causing a problem?

  • Does Premiere Pro support a "self-record" mode?

    Does Premiere Pro support a "self-record" mode? It would record a new video with the source being what you are previewing, in terms of "animation" rather than in terms of the quality seen on screen. I often like to make humorous effects by dragging the time indicator back and forth, and have to resort to recording my own screen while in semi-fullscreen mode, then import that video and crop out the chrome. This obviously is not optimal and results in significant quality loss. Does Pr itself have such a feature built in?
    I doubt it does, but it would be extremely useful.

    Ditto what mark said. The intended purpose of the project manager is basically to do just as you said. It was a great solution for anyone that wanted to store the few usable minutes of their media and were confident in just discarding the rest. The problem is that, as Mark said, it doesn't handle the trimming of all common file types these days. That's because, in video, 'destructive' editing is always a matter of re-exporting edited versions and project manage simply cannot export every format to any format. The original files are never actually being trimmed down, you're just getting new versions to replace the old ones with. This represents another drawback in the form of generational loss. That's why the Project Trimmer many not be the ideal solution for you even if it is able to trim all applicable formats for you.
    I tend to agree with Jim and thing that the better way to go is with Prelude. With that app, you can log what you want before hand and then capture (or, more accurately, 'Ingest') just those parts from the start. Still, it might be a good idea to save the original footage on memory card(s), hard drive(s)s (or , dare I say, tape(s_?). That way if you find out later that you didn't capture (or ingest) all of what you wanted, you can always go back and get it. Also you'll have an additional backup which could easily be re-captured from the original source if you've save the prelude project(s).

  • How to Get Page Break Before Inline TOC in EPUB?

    I'm exporting a book file to epub.  The TOC is created correctly inline, but I can't yet find a way to get a page break right before it. 
    In EPUB Export Options->Advanced, I have selected Split Document->Based on Paragraph Style Export Tags.
    The TOC Header (saying "Table of Contents") has the paragraph style "TOC Heading." In paragraph styles panel->Edit all Export Tags, I have checked the checkbox for "Split EPUB" next to the "TOC Heading" style.
    But, after export, there is no page break before the TOC Header.
    How can I correct this?
    Thanks very much in advance to all for any info.

    I think basically you're doing it correctly. I've run into the same problem. What I found is that the heading in the PLACED table of contents (placed by using the Layout > Table of Contents feature and placing it onto the page) will not work for making a page break. It's a special kind of object because it can be updated by the Update Table of Contents command.
    You have to do a workaround: You need to create "Table of Contents" in a separate frame and apply the TOC Heading paragraph style.
    In the TOC style, DON'T include content for the TOC title. Look at the screen captures below of my TOC.
    By separating the "Contents" into its own frame it works in EPUB:

  • Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it?

    Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it to xls file without the need for much changes or manual work?

    Acrobat X (Standard and Pro) will save tabular data to XLS or XLSX format, provided it can recognize the table as being a table. If the PDF has missing or incorrect structure tags, Acrobat will try to guess the table layout by the position of text and lines on the page - this works well for basic formatting but if the table has complex styling, spanned cells etc. it can lead to problems.
    Acrobat X will even attempt to export a table within a scanned document, by applying OCR during the export stage - though again this relies on the table being visually identified.
    See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/pdf-to-word-excel-converter.html and this article on how to extract one table from a larger document.

    Hi Gary,
    I have seen this issue occur with users who have this registry setting missing or have improper permissions.
    When you double click the attachment to launch the pdf it is saved and opened from the temporary folder unless saved specifically to a location.
    If you dont have the below mentioned registry key or improper permissions then attachments fail to open.
    Please  heck if the following reg key exists:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
    or
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
    Value Name: OutlookSecureTempFolder
    If the value exists, and if the value contains a valid path, Outlook 2010 uses that location for its temporary files.
    If the registry value does not exist, or if the value points to an invalid location, Outlook 2010, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2003 creates a new subdirectory under the Temporary Internet Files directory and then puts the temporary file in the new subdirectory. The name of the new subdirectory is unknown and is randomly generated, depending on your version of Outlook.
    Please check the following key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
    Note the location for: OutlookSecureTempFolder key
    Check if the same folder exists in the following location and if not create a corresponding folder in the location on C:\Users\<User account name>\Appdata\Local\Software\Microsoft\Windows\......

  • Page Break Before & Repeating Frame (Reports 10G - Windows)

    Hi to all,
    I have to give page break when a condition met in a tabular report.Like it s advised I tried some layout objects with page break before property true and wrote their return code true if this criteria occurs. But whatever I tried, I couldnt get my desired output.It gives page break but repeats a blank repeating frame in the next page but only with that object I added later with page break property. Anybody have an idea ?
    Thanks...

    Hi,
    sounds like there's no child object for your object with page break before. This property has only impact of the object itself and all it's child objects. An object is a child object of another object, if the position of this objects has impact of the own position. This is only the case, if the parent object is vertical expandable and the child object is horizontally overlapping the virtual expand-region, or the child-object is anchored to the parent object.
    So if you have this layout:
    blue box fixed size
    red box fixed size
    yellow box fixed size
    and you set page break before to the red box, you will get:
    blue box
    yellow box
    -- page break
    red box
    If the red box is verical expandable you will get:
    blue box
    --page break*
    red box
    yellow box
    So in your tabluar report your field of the report should be in a frame and this frame should be child object of your new object which must be vertical expandable or anchor them together.

    My Daughter likes to create Calendars, as a Document,  in Mircrosoft Publisher; does Acrobat Pro have a similar feature? do make such a document?

    No, but that's not a problem. Acrobat isn't used to "make" documents in the way Word, or Pubisher, or whatever is. Instead, you continue to use Word or Publisher or whatever, and CONVERT the file to PDF. For every change, no matter how small, you change the original and make it again.

  • Orage reports - page break before

    Hi
    Can any more experience devolpers help? I have a group above report that I wish the group to either page break after or page break before. If I set page break before then the group only prints on page 2 onwards. If I set page break after it prints on page 1 ok but then the report total always prints on its own on the last page.

  • Detecting Page Break before/after text

    Is there a way to detect if there is a page break before or after a block of text through scripting?

    yourSelection.characters.item(-1).contents
    This will return a regular single character "\r" for a hard return at the end, but any of ID's breaks will be indicated by one of the values:
    SpecialCharacters.COLUMN_BREAK
    SpecialCharacters.EVEN_PAGE_BREAK
    SpecialCharacters.FRAME_BREAK
    SpecialCharacters.ODD_PAGE_BREAK
    SpecialCharacters.PAGE_BREAK
    (as you can see there is more than one 'break' character).
    To check a page break before the current paragraph, you will have get a pointer the paragraph before the current one and do this same check on that.
    Check also the constant
    yourSelection.startParagraph
    which can be
    StartParagraph.NEXT_COLUMN
    StartParagraph.NEXT_EVEN_PAGE
    StartParagraph.NEXT_FRAME
    StartParagraph.NEXT_ODD_PAGE
    StartParagraph.NEXT_PAGE
    indicating the Keep Options applied to the current paragraph. These also make paragraphs start at a new page.
    Finally, there is the possibility that none of the above applies, but the previous paragraph ended right at the bottom of a text frame, and the current paragraph starts at the top of a new frame. No special character or code, but still a page break. (Perhaps you could test paragraph.lines for that.)
