I have noticed having updated to 3.5.0 Build 1008 from previous versions of Help&Manual 3.x that the page breaks no longer work when compiling for PDF or print manual.
I have looked around in the forums and I couldn't find anything on this topic. Is it only me having the problem??
Thanks
Dan

I just tested this and hard page breaks are working fine for me in build 1008. Under what circumstances precisely are you experiencing the problem?

My settings for Adobe PDF Export are as follows;
----------------------------------------------------------
PDF Layout:
- Only 'Topics' checkbox selected in list.
- 'Interactive PDF Document' radio button selected.
- 'Create Table fo Contents' checkbox selected.
- 'PDF has active hyperlinks' checbox selected.
- 'Ignore Blank Pages in PDF file' checbox selected.
PDF Options:
- Text Compression: Deflate
- Image Quality: No Compression
- Open Mode: Display Table of Contents by default
- Zoom mode: Viewer Default
- 'User can print the PDF file' checkbox selected
- 'User can copy text' checkbox selected
- 'User can change PDF file' checkbox selected
(Everything else is blank)
Font Embedding:
- Embed True Type Fonts selected
- Do NOT embed these fonts
- Arial
- Courier
- Courier New
- Times New Roman
----------------------------------------------------------
The print template settings only has the 'Topics' section enabled where there is only a <HEADING1> & <HEADING2> variables in separate bands and the topic text block in another band.
I don't think there is anything else I can tell you but that the file was a part of Build 1005 & 1007 of v3.5.0.
If you like I can send you the 'hm3' and 'mnl' file so you can test it and see
Thanks Tim

I'm not sure if this is relevant as I haven't yet tried 3.5, but in previous
versions, if the page breaks are at the end of a topic it is
necessary to insert 2 page breaks to get a single page break.
