Description

E.g.

  • html-margin-page-break.pdf
  • html-margin-page-break-image.pdf
  • html-margin-page-break-slice.pdf
  • html-margin-page-break-text.pdf

We have to figure out if that's a problem of the html method or only the specific test cases.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the four named reference PDFs and the HTML method that generates them, then reproduce their behavior in Adobe Reader. Compare the cases to determine whether the defect is in the HTML method or the individual test cases; done means the cause is established and the affected references behave correctly or are clearly accounted for.
