PDFsharp & MigraDoc Foundation

Hello!

I'm trying to produce invoices with MigraDoc but I've run into some trouble.
The Header/footer works perfectly fine but the Table has some sort of.. tricky mistakes.

Basicly what it does is, that when you get an invoice with almost 1 full page or 2 pages, it works perfectly fine ( see below ).

Red = TextFrame
Green = Footer

Almost Full(working)


Two Pages(working)


But now for the screwed up part..



When the table fills enough to not open a second page, it just overwrites the TextFrames without opening a second page. Is there a way to tell MigraDoc to open a new page with an layout like in the second screen?

Best wishes

Hi!
Different solutions come to mind:

1. Make bottom margin large enough to "protect" the textframes (so the summary area will be empty on all but the last page)
2. Add the page breaks manually (will not work if descriptions can be one or more lines long)
3. Add the summary without textframes (vertical position will vary; KeepWthNext can be used to keep it on one page)
4. Render once with a dummy paragraph below the table, check the vertical position of the dummy paragraph; if the dummy paragraph is too low, add a pagebreak and render again (this will lead to big table on first page and summary only on second page)

Solution 1 is easy, but leaves a big bottom margin on preceding pages. Solution 4 is slightly better, but more complicated.
Solution 3 looks like a good one (if variable vertical position is acceptable).

See here if you want to try solution 4:
