Hi there,

Since the new version of the Print Order app the page break is ignored, I tried numerous solutions but no dice. This makes it impossible to print properly an invoice with additional info on the verso.

Here is what worked with the legacy version:

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

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. As I can completely understand the impact, I’ve gone ahead flagged the issue with our Developers for further investigation. For updates, improvements, and changes made to the app, you can refer to the Shopify Changelog. If you notice anything else or have additional feedback, please feel free to let me know.

It’s not OK. We used the page-break:avoid to keep totals and company-footer together, doesn’t work (anymore). Besides that the product-header doesn’t take into account how much space the page-header with the address-data and our logo takes, and doesn’t place it at the top of the new page, but lower, amid the products.
