如何在使用 wkhtmltopdf 将 html 转换为 pdf 之前确定页面的结尾？

Question

I have an HTML page that is generated dynamically, based on a specific form. Once an HTML page is generated, it can be converted to PDF using wkhtmltopdf .

If the page is too long, wkhtmltopdf will automatically split it into multiple pages, but I want to have control over WHERE the split will happen.

I need this because each page will contain specific charts for the specific information that will be displayed on the page and whenever automatic split happens, I sometimes get a chart not being related to the text displayed on the page.

So ideally I want to be able to determine whether the form generated content is too long for 1 page or not and then manually add a new page with controlled content.

To add a new page, I'm basically using the following CSS rule, which works fine:

  @media print {
    .new-page {
      page-break-before: always;
    }
  }

The application is built in Laravel + Svelte.js (but I don't think it matters much, because I'm just trying to figure out how to approach the issue in general).

Perhaps I could get some recommendations?

To control where to split your page, you can use the page-break-after attribute.

Example :

<div style="page-break-after:always;"></div>
