FM 12 Kindle Page Breaks

[Scott Prentice]

Art...

Unfortunately this CSS setting isn't honored by most readers .. Kindles 
are typically worse in this regard than EPUB readers.

The only guaranteed way to get a page break is to force the content into 
a separate content file in the package. You should be able to do this by 
starting a new FM file for each place you want a page break. I assume 
you're generating the MOBI from a FM book?

Cheers,

...scott
