Is there a way to create a style that accepts all existing formatting and
simply applies (i.e., forces) a page break? My attempts to create such a style
have failed so far.
I really don't want to have to create an Override every time I want a page
break based on layout/esthetic reasons.

You can create a style that has a large space below defined, which has
the effect of pushing everything to the next page. This is what I have
done and has worked well for years. I called mine 0PageBreak so that it

You just have to edit the TOC setup to include both the regular and the
break-before versions of each heading. In other words, both H1 and H1_break,
both H2 and H2_break, etc. Works like a champ.

Depends on whether or not you include it in the TOC. Do you want it in the TOC?

But note that the alternate approach of a break-after paragraph (i.e. one
with 999 pts of space after) doesn't require any change to the TOC setup at
all. Which is one reason why I personally prefer that approach.

Yes. My headings are always configured to be auto-included in the TOC. With the
kind of manuals I create, this makes things simplest.

I also use a PageBreak para format to insert manual page breaks. I
think I just cloned it from our basic para format (Normal), but set the
space below to 700pt. To make it visible, I set the colour to blue and
set tabs stops at 5mm intervals across the whole text column, with the
