page break in Word output using section break setting

[gabeanderson]

I can successfully add page breaks in my Word output via my style property setting (add break before), but this is problematic when I also want my chapter header (H1) to appear on the same page as a section header (H2) - unless I'm missing something with that approach.

Anyhow, I understand that Word should respect the section break setting, but it does not seem to be working for me. I've tried different Am I missing something? Please see attached screenshots.

Thanks.

Hi Gabe,

I set up a style that replicates my heading 1 in appearance and has the page break before property set (also had to set the mc-heading-level property so it acted like a heading 1 in TOC etc). I did the same for H2.

If I needed a page break I applied p.heading2_pagebreak (or whatever you call it) rather than H2 to force a page break.

Thanks, Steve!

Where's the mc-heading-level property? I'm not seeing that - there are similar properties under unclassified, but none with that exact name that I can see.

mc-heading-level is under PrintSupport in the advanced view of the stylesheet editor.

Great! Thanks, Steve. That gave me exactly what I needed to do.
