If you are using wkhtmltopdf, you can set the role attribute in almost 
any tag to 'pdf-break' and it will force a page break before that object 
in the PDF.

e.g.

<programlisting role='pdf-break' language="XML">...

It's not tested a lot so you might have to get creative.

Also, someone should document all the stuff in my head!

Cheers, Jeff..
