        </div>

        <h2>Overview</h2>
        <p>
            This example document showcases the advanced capabilities of modern HTML to PDF conversion
            using Puppeteer. The system intelligently handles page breaks, maintains formatting across
            pages, and ensures that related content stays together.
        </p>

        <p>
            The PDF generation engine supports multiple aspect ratios (16:9 for presentations, 1:1 for
            social media, and 9:16 for documents), automatic mode detection, and sophisticated CSS
            page break controls.
        </p>

        <h2>Features Demonstrated</h2>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>Multi-page support</strong> with natural page breaks</li>
            <li><strong>Page break control</strong> using CSS properties</li>
            <li><strong>Table header repetition</strong> across pages</li>
            <li><strong>Keep-together elements</strong> to prevent awkward splits</li>
            <li><strong>Professional formatting</strong> with consistent styling</li>
            <li><strong>Print-optimized CSS</strong> for perfect rendering</li>
        </ul>

        <div class="warning-box">
            <strong>⚠️ Important Note:</strong> This document uses CSS page break properties to control
            how content flows across pages. Modern browsers and PDF generators respect these properties
            when properly configured.

            CSS property on the <code>&lt;thead&gt;</code> element.

        <h2>CSS Best Practices for PDF Generation</h2>
        
        <p>
            Proper PDF generation requires careful consideration of CSS page break properties.
            Here are the key techniques used in this document:
        </p>

        <div class="keep-together">
            <h3>Page Break Control</h3>
            <pre><code>/* Force a page break after this element */
.page {
    page-break-after: always;
    break-after: page;
}

/* Prevent breaks inside an element */
.keep-together {
    page-break-inside: avoid;
    break-inside: avoid;
}

/* Avoid breaks after headings */
h1, h2, h3 {
    page-break-after: avoid;
}</code></pre>
        </div>

        <div class="keep-together">
            <h3>Table Header Repetition</h3>
            <pre><code>/* Make table headers repeat on each page */
thead {
    display: table-header-group;
    break-inside: avoid;
}

/* Prevent table rows from breaking */
tr {
    page-break-inside: avoid;
}</code></pre>
        </div>

        <h2>Key Configuration Options</h2>
        <ul>
            <li><strong>preferCSSPageSize: true</strong> - Respects CSS @page rules</li>
            <li><strong>printBackground: true</strong> - Includes background colors and images</li>
            <li><strong>emulateMediaType('print')</strong> - Uses print CSS media queries</li>
            <li><strong>format: 'A4'</strong> - Standard paper size for documents</li>
        </ul>

        <p>
            This document has demonstrated the comprehensive capabilities of modern HTML to PDF
            conversion using Puppeteer with proper page break handling and professional formatting.
        </p>

        <h2>Summary of Capabilities</h2>
        
        <div class="keep-together">
            <h3>Multi-Page Support</h3>
            <p>
                The system automatically handles documents of any length, properly breaking content
                across pages while respecting CSS page break properties. Content stays together when
                needed, and breaks naturally when appropriate.
            </p>
        </div>

        <div class="keep-together">
            <h3>Professional Formatting</h3>
            <p>
                All styling, including backgrounds, colors, fonts, and layouts, is preserved in the
                final PDF. The output is print-ready and maintains professional appearance across
                all pages.
            </p>
        </div>

        <div class="keep-together">
            <h3>Flexible Configuration</h3>
            <p>
                Support for multiple aspect ratios, automatic mode detection, and extensive CSS
                control makes this solution suitable for any document type, from reports and invoices
                to presentations and infographics.
