pagebreak not included in PDF outputs

[chc88]

domPDF and mpdf both support the certain "pagebreak" constructs to allow html-input to force a pagebreak in the resulting pdf.

http://mpdf1.com/manual/index.php?tid=110
https://code.google.com/p/dompdf/wiki/FAQ (search for "break" its: "Q How do I insert page breaks?")

Unfortunately I am uncertain to where to implement either of the options (I don't have any preferences between mpdf or dompdf).

Is this something which should be included in \PHPWord\Writer\Element\PageBreak.php ?
As this file is empty, it looks like pagebreaks are ignored for the moment?

Hope someone can point me towards the correct location.

Found it, as PageBreak extended TextBreak this was a good startingpoint.

A solution for:

• MPDF (see link above, and tested)
• DomPDF (see link above, and tested)
• TCPDF according to http://chandeshparekh.com/css-to-create-new-page-in-php-tcpdf-pdf/

is to change the PageBreak class to:

class PageBreak extends TextBreak
{
    /**
     * Write page break
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function write()
    {
        return '<pagebreak style="page-break-before: always;" pagebreak="true"></pagebreak>';
    }
}
