Is automatic page break possible? #439
Description
Hello, I opened an issue because I could not find a source related to my problem.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"/>
<title>PDF</title>
<style>
@page {
size: letter;
margin: 0;
@top-right {
content: element(header);
}
@bottom-center {
content: element(footer);
}
}
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #444;
}
header {
display: block;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
padding: 30px 15px;
height: 30px;
background-color: #d9c597;
border-top: 1px solid #fff;
text-align: center;
font-size: 22px;
font-weight: 300;
color: #fff;
z-index: 1000;
}
footer {
display: block;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
padding: 30px 15px;
height: 30px;
background-color: #d9c597;
border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
text-align: center;
font-weight: 300;
font-size: 22px;
color: #fff;
}
section {
display: block;
padding: 100px 40px;
page-break-after: always;
}
section:last-child {
page-break-after: auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<section>
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</section>
<header>Header</header>
<footer>Footer</footer>
</body>
</html>I'm trying to create a PDF with HTML like this. But when the page content is long, the header and footer rules are invalid on pages other than the first page.
In order to solve the problem, when I want to define margin values for page, give a negative top value for the header, and a negative bottom value for the footer, these areas remain below the layout. For example:
@page {
size: letter;
display: block;
margin: 90px 0;
@top-right {
content: element(header);
}
@bottom-center {
content: element(footer);
}
}
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
...
}
header {
display: block;
position: fixed;
top: -45px;
left: 0;
right: 0;
...
}
footer {
display: block;
position: fixed;
bottom: -45px;
left: 0;
right: 0;
...
}
Do you have any suggestions to solve this problem? Thanks in advance.
