cssprinting

How can I avoid an extra blank page at the end while printing?

I'm using a CSS property.

If I use page-break-after: always;, it prints an extra blank page before.

If I use page-break-before: always;, it prints an extra blank page after. How can I avoid this?

Solution

  • You could maybe add

    .print:last-child {
     page-break-after: auto;
}

    so the last print element will not get the extra page break.

    Do note that the :last-child selector is not supported in Internet Explorer 8, if you're targetting that wretch of a browser.
