Description

### Can we insert some symbol to indicate a `New Page Here` , like [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16965490/pandoc-markdown-page-break)

**If we can fully control page break, we can export markdown as many PDF pages ,
so, we can use this in presentation like PPT .**

:D

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating MacDown’s Markdown-to-PDF export path and determine how a page-break marker should be represented. Done means the requested marker reliably starts a new PDF page and the behavior is verified in the relevant export workflow.
