In Jakarta and Kingston, the best way to add a page break was to invoke a new function added in the GeneralPDF script include to add this functionality to the generator. Below is what i had to do, and will admit this was a customization to the OOB since i edited the GeneralPDF script includes.

In GeneralPDF i changed the addHTML function to look like this around line 290:

var objects = this.htmlWorker.parseToList(contentReader);


for ( var i = 0; i < objects.size(); i += 1) {

var element = objects.get(i);

if(element.toString() == "[{!Page_Break}]") {

//adding a new page if this element is found!

this.document.addNewPage();

} else {

this.document.add(element);

}

}

In my template i added a line like this in the necessary spot:

{!Page_Break}
