Problem with page breaks and domino form (client)

HCL Domino Domino Forum

I have a form build that is basically a survey for two people to take. It is actually a performance review that both the employee does and the supervisor does, so it has two columns of answers for each question. The answers for each question is held in a table below the question. An example is this:

  1. Job Knowledge:

Does the employee have the knowledge and skill to do their job?

Self Rating Supervisor

1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5

Comments(rtf) Comments(rtf)

The last three rows are in a table. This is the same across about 12 questions. When I try to insert page breaks to ensure that nothing is clipped between questions or/and to keep questions and answers on the same page I get some very mixed results.

When I put a page break, the next paragraph below the page break is not printed and in some cases it skips multiple questions and I have even gotten it to just show a blank page instead of showing anything. Tried to find something on the internet where this has happened to someone else to help find a solution but have yet to come up with anything.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why some of the questions just aren’t printing at all? They are viewable when looking at the form, they just disappear when you print the form.

Are you sure that page breaks are the best approach? These do pre-suppose page size, printer, etc. to some extent.

You could use the paragraph controls instead, such as Keep paragraph with next paragraph to ensure questions don’t get broken up.

I actually get the same results when I use the pagination controls as I do when I try to do Create->Page Break.

I will try it with just the paragraph controls but not check the page break and see what results I can get from there, though in the past (and one reason why I was trying to use page breaks in the first place) when the document is printed it seems to clip some text off of the first line from each preceding page past the first one.
