How to add a page break in the editor?

Hello.

Firstly, this SW is phenomenal. Excellent work and features.
I made a conversion from PDF to EPUB which went very well.
After that I started editing the files to fix the problems and I have pretty much cleaned it up. I also set the appropriate headings and created the TOC.
The only thing I have trouble finding is how to set page break before the chapters.

Thanks in advance.

The best manner is just to make each chapter it's own file.

I am a fan of separate file way.
BUT
go over to W3C and look for the series of CSS Styles

wait for it.......

I agree with both comments, above. But, for giggles, here's how I format my chapter headings in the stylesheet:

Code:
h1, h2, h3, h4 {
/* Basic Chapter Heading Styling */
  page-break-before: always;
  page-break-after: avoid;
  text-align: center;
}
I don't think I've ever gone beyond h4, so that's why I've only modified those four.

And sadly, you will run into quite a few renderers that will disregard any or all of the page-break directives. You will also find that the page-break-whatever is deprecated and replaced by break-after, break-before and break-inside which are equally likely to be disregarded.

Calibre can split files at <h whatever> Separate files works best and the only way on some platforms.
