Thanks, that works.

You do recognize the highly manual nature of this process, though,  
right?  Not only do I have to add the breaks, I have to go through an  
iterative process with Print Preview, because OO doesn't have a page  
layout view.  (Nor should it; OO is not a page layout program.)  On  
top of that, it makes any future edits more difficult, because I have  
to go back through the iterative Print Preview process to ensure that  
my breaks are still valid.  These are the very sort of processes that  
computers are better at than humans.

I'm not so much complaining as trying to convince you that my  
original idea would be a good thing to add to your future feature  
list.  It should be an optional behavior; not everyone will want  
this, I'm sure.

No need to reply...just consider it, please.
