Page-break in PDF output and printed manual doesn`t work!

Unread post by matthias »

Hi,

I have tried now to "Insert | Manual Page break" in the printed manual and also in PDF output using "Standard_manual.mnl" but it doesn`t work.

I have added the Manual Page break in my first topic but when I generate the PDF-output then there is no page break where it should be. H&M just ignores my inserted page-break.

Do I have to change something within the template, so that it works or how does this feature work?

Regards,
Matthias

Just tried it, worked fine for me straight off. What version are you using?

Now I can see. The Manual page break only works when there is anything written after the Manual page break line. If there is nothing written after the Manual page break line then H&M just ignores the page break.

Is there any solution for that because I don`t want to write anything after the page break ( it is the end of a topic ) ?

I am using H&M 3.2 / 702

Ah...that problem. There's a trick to get it to work. See this thread:

OK, thanks it works now using Alt+255. I was looking for that in the H&M help file but I didn`t find it.

Thanks again,
