I have about 60 email messages, none longer than one page,

a 60-page PDF - IOW one PDF page per email message. Search as I might
through the included help pages, I cannot seem to identify any way to
introduce page breaks in the PDF in this fashion ... has anyone
done this? Regrettably, I have a hunch I'll have to save all of them
first, then load them into Writer, before even thinking of PDF
exports...
Thanks,

You can insert a page break in a Writer document by pressing Ctrl+Enter,
or from the menu Insert > Manual Break and choose a Page Break.
For your particular use (assuming you only actually want the final PDF),
it may be easier to use PDFCreator (http://www.pdfforge.org/) or
something similar, which installs a virtual printer. You can print to
that from any application, and it will create a PDF of what would have
been printed. If your email client is able to print a selection of
emails one to a page, as you want, you can do just that but print to
PDFCreator instead of a printer. Even if you can only print one email at
a time, you can click "Wait - collect" in PDFCreator rather than "Save",
when printing the first email, then print the remaining 59 emails. Once
done, you'll have a list like a print queue, where you can select
Document > Combine All and then Document > Print which will "print" a
single PDF containing all your emails.
Hope that helps,
Mark.
