This question is not really related to our XML editor. It is related to 
the DocBook XSL style sheets which are bundled with the product, but for 
which we provide no support.

This document contains the answer to your questions:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PageBreaking.html

Example, to force a pagebreak before a section:

[1] I explicitly select the section.

[2] I use "Edit|Processing Instruction|Insert Processing Instruction 
Before".

[3] The newly inserted PI is selected, I use "Edit|Processing 
Instruction|Change Processing Instruction Target" and replace 
placeholder target "target" by "dbfo-need".

[4] I click inside the PI and I type 'height="15cm"'. See attached 
screenshot.

Remarks:

* This works fine with RenderX XEP. I've not tried with FOP.

* There is a way to automate steps 2 to 4 using a macro-command. See
