does Printomatic recognize the HTML/CSS style property of break-after and
break-before or does it just act as a courier for the data?  If so, then
create an HTML member a paragraph tag with
STYLE="page-break-before:always" in it wherever you want to start a new
page.  It works perfectly in all HTML pages I've printed from a browser. 
Intereting to see if it works in Director.

Subject: <lingo-l> printing a text cast member on multiple pages

I have a large text file in a text cast member, and I want the text to 
be 
printable and appear on multiple pages. I have a registered 
printomatic. 
What I did until now was I  had to divide the text into a few text 
members. 
Otherwise printomatic simply shrinks the whole text onto one paper...

The problem with this way is 1) it's hard to divide up the text. 2) the 
text 
comes out different sizes, depending on the amount of text in each file 
/ 
page. Is there an easier way?

Until now I've been using the following code:

set doc = new(xtra "PrintOMatic")

if not objectP(doc) then exit

append doc, castLib "manual", TRUE

if doJobSetup (doc) = TRUE then print doc

set doc = 0
