Odoo: How to include a 'page break' / second page in custom report (pdf)?
I created a new report from scratch using this guide: http://odoo.guide/report-design-workshop/
My Problem: If I have a lot of products on my report the last part including total amount etc. is not shown. I would like to have a kind of page break or at least a second pdf page.
Note: If I use the basic odoo report I have a second page in the pdf but it is shown as this: http://fs5.directupload.net/images/150924/bf9lsx6u.jpg
Any other ideas are welcome!
Edit: In the basic report using the page-break tag works realy fine but it didnt affect my own report design at all.
My Code trying to use the page-break tag:
account.Name_report
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<t t-name="account.Name_report">
<t t-call="report.Name_layout">
<t t-foreach="docs" t-as="o"> <!-- this makes the context model data accessible throughout the variable "o" -->
<div class="page">

Answer
There are a few page break types that can be used for Qweb reports.
You can use one of these tags:
<p style="page-break-before:always;"> </p> (most reports use this type)
<p style="page-break-after:always"></p>
<div style="page-break-after: auto;"><span style="display: none;"> </span></div>
<p style="page-break-inside: avoid"></p>
<div style="page-break-inside: auto"></div>
