I want to insert pagebreak characters into html text, so that if a user copies the text and pastes into MS Word or Mac Pages, the breaks are included.

Note I don't need these characters to have any behaviour in the html, I just need them to be included in the text copied and pasted by the user.

Is there a way to put pagebreak characters into html?

Edit This is not for printing, this is for copying and pasting into WYSIWYG programs, so print css will not work, it needs to be something the clipboard will transfer.

  • @ObsidianAge Doesn't look like a dup of that question to me. To the question poster: Do you mean copying the source code (put a ^F in comments?) or copying the displayed text (dunno if it can be done)? – Ken Y-N Jul 13 '18 at 00:59
  • Not a duplicate—I want to force a page jump when pasting text into a WYSIWYG, not when printing. @KenY-N I mean copying the displayed text (although a JS "click to copy text" function could also work) – Mirror318 Jul 14 '18 at 02:52
