Avoid every Confluence page starting on a new PDF page

Martin_Nitschke

Hi,

currently our PDF Export is used to send our product documententation to our customers. For this reason our PDF Layout and Stylesheet is adapted to our companies cooperative design.

We are using Confluence 6.12 and we are about to update to version 6.14.1 but during a test on our test system we noticed that the page number of our PDF export has risen threefold because every Confluence page starts on a new PDF page.

Is there any way to avoid this new feature which was added in version 6.13: (https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-6-13-release-notes-959288785.html "PDF Export improvements -> Each Confluence page starts on a new PDF page, making your documents easier to read")?

We aint see any advatage of this feature because now we have PDF pages with only one sentence on it for intance.

Thank you in advance

Hello there Martin!

You sure can disable this by using the following CSS styling:

.pagetitle {
    page-break-before: auto;
}

You can change the PDF Layout by going: Cog Icon > General Configuration > PDF Stylesheet.

There, you need to click edit and then add the CSS above. This will stop Confluence from creating a new PDF page for each Confluence page.

Hi Diego,

thank you very much. It worked.

I tryed something with h1 because I thought the page break belongs to the heading but it isn´t.

The class pagetitle with the property page-break-before: auto is the correct one.

Thank you again and best regards
