Page Breaks

[Sandra]

I don't want a printer-friendly version of my web page.
So all the CSS code for this is unnecessary. I just want
to put page breaks in a Word document saved as htm, and
page breaks in a Front Page document. Surely there's a
simple way. I do not want to do PDF. I'm sure some
intelligent experienced person can tell me how. ????

CSS page breaks only apply when the page is being printed, it has no impact on the page being
displayed in a browser. In HTML there is really no page width or length, you determine how much
content to place on each page (file), and then create the number of pages (files) needed to meet
that goal.

You cannot create "page breaks" . This is a word processor function that is
not supported by HTML.
Your best bet would be converting to .pdf which allows the user to select
his own printing options. (BTW cutepdf works great for this)

That is what I want -- to page break in a certain place
when it is being printed. How???

You need to use the CSS code that you have indicated that you have or see:

Thank you. Is there a way to do this in a Word document
saved as htm?

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

No. You have to do this in the page after you have save it as HTML from Word and imported it into
FP, then switch to HTML/Code view enter the tags.

I can't switch to HTML view, because when I save it in
Word (as htm) it is still a Word file, not a Front Page
file, and there are no "views". I tried saving it
directly into the web, and I tried importing it into the
web, but neither one is an FP file. Is there some other
way to save the Word file as html?

Thank you.

Save it as HTML to your desktop from Word, then import into FP. Under Tools | Option you can set FP
to open Word HTML documents.

Thank you. It was the "Tools | Option" that helped. It
was set to "open file in application that created it" I
had no idea that was there.
