Hi,

We use EOWP ConvertUrl (21.2.31.0) on pages with ShadowRoot embedding multiple div with CSS style "page-break-inside:avoid" but the output PDF do not avoid page breaks inside the div.
If we print the page with Chrome, the div aren't breaked.
A simple test can be setup with the following HTML/JS :
Code: HTML/ASPX
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

  <head>
	<script>
	function init(){
		var container = document.getElementById("container");
		var root = container.attachShadow( { mode: "open" } )
		
		var style = document.createElement("style");
		style.textContent = ".unbreakable { display:block; border: 1px solid black;background-color: pink;height:300px;page-break-inside:avoid }"
		root.appendChild(style);
		
		for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
				var unbreakableDiv = document.createElement( "div" )
				unbreakableDiv.textContent = "Element number " + i
				unbreakableDiv.classList.add("unbreakable")
				root.appendChild( unbreakableDiv )
		}
	}

	</script>

  </head>

  <body onLoad="init()">
    <div id="container">
	</div>
  </body>

</html>


Do you have any solution to make it work with ConvertUrl?

Thanks

Hi,

The paging process does not support shadow tree. Is it possible for you to insert the elements in the real tree but inside an absolute positioned root DIV? That way they will not affect your main content layout but the page instruction should still be honored since they are part of the "real" DOM tree.

Thanks!

Hi,

We do need shadow trees to encapsulate user defined HTLM with both JS and CSS. Our users may create large reports with a lot of elements within an HTML layout.
We then need to preview the reports (without any interference to our app) and to print them.
Do you plan to add shadowRoot support in the near future?

Thanks
