Trying to explain this simple...

I am creating documents with headlines and paragraph texts. Sometimes the headline come in the very end of a page so that the paragraph auto starts on next line. This does not look very pretty.

Is there a way to auto page break if headline is very far down on page? Change margins would not help since it would only move the issue up and down.

Hello,

MS Word doesn't have a tag to autodetect if a content is 'far down on page' or similar cases.

Maybe you can use keepLines or keepNext options in paragraphs to keep contents on the same page (https://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/word-content/add-paragraph-text-Word-document-with-PHP). HTML methods, such as embedHTML, allow using page-break-* properties to set the previous properties.

Regards.
