The Application
I am working on an EHR application. The page I am working on converts the contents of a XAML file's data to an XPS file which can be printed or drawn on. When the page's data in on the XAML page it can easily be scrolled through and the data is kept inside a BlockUIContainer. However once the XPS file is generated, some sections are cut off.
Application Code
Inside the 10-14YearVisit form XAML file
<!--History Section-->
<BlockUIContainer>
<genForms_Controls:PatientHistoryUC />
</BlockUIContainer>
<!--History Bottom-->
The PatientHistoryUC.xaml (Sorry, lots of code!)

What I want to happen
Depending on the amount of data being supplied to the XPS generated file, pagination occurs which moves excess contents to the next page rather than cutting off. I believe the BlockUIContainer is the main issue as it can't be split into two when the data becomes too much for the set page size (8 x 11).
Thank you for reading.
