I try to generate pdf file by puppetter. It works good for one page but when I try to generate multipage pdf document, I have a bug with page breaks. HTML template is used for generate below. Please, help me if you can. Pre condition for reproduce: fill first page on 100% height and add title for block below.
HTML template
function getHTMLTemplate(
height = 'auto',
component = '<div></div>',
style = '<style></style>',
header = '<div></div>',
footer = '<div></div>',
) {
return `
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<title>HTML to PDF Example</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<style>
* {margin: 0; padding: 0; border-spacing: 0;}
.page {
width: 210mm;
height: ${height};
overflow: hidden;
background: transparent;
margin-top: -1px !important;
margin-bottom: -1px !important;
}
body>div {
width: 100%;
position: fixed;
}
body>div:first-child {
top: 0;
}
body>div:nth-child(2) {
bottom: 0;
}
@page {
size: 'A4';
margin: 0;
}
@media print {
thead {display: table-header-group;}
tfoot {display: table-footer-group;}
html, body {
width: 210mm;
height: 297mm;
}
tbody::after {
content: '';
display: block;
page-break-after: always;
page-break-inside: avoid;
page-break-before: avoid;
}
}
.block {
top: 0;
width: 210mm;
height: 40px;
position: absolute;
background: #092a4e;
z-index: 1;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="block"></div>

To avoid a div breaking into two pages, add a class (eg. "myDiv") to the div in html and include the below code in page CSS.
@media print {
.myDiv {
break-inside: avoid;
}
}
