<w:lastRenderedPageBreak />
See original GitHub issueAs part of using mammoth I’ve had a need to detect natural page breaks. While Word doesn’t mark pages, it does insert <w:lastRenderedPageBreak /> into the document at the flowed page breaks (seemingly at column breaks as well).
To detect these, I hacked together a system adding a detector to docx/body_xml.py’s def inline(element) to detect <w:lastRenderedPageBreak /> elements and call a function that inserts dummy text that I find and replace later.
Realizing that this isn’t a very reusable way of looking for these rendered page breaks, I was wondering if you had a preferred way of detecting/inserting these extra tags in the HTML. If so, I’d be happy to try turning it into a proper PR.
