Forcing content to fit on a single page

Forcing content to fit on a single page


If you want to make a container that will always take an entire page, no more, no less, you can define it like so:


.page {
  /* Defining an A4 portrait page */
  height: 1120px;
  width: 793px;

  /* Will prevent any content like large images from messing */
  /* with printed content auto-scaling */
  overflow: hidden;

  /* Will allow any absolutely positionned content to be */
  /* placed relatilvely to the page by default */
  position: relative;
}```

```HTML:
<div class="page">
  Content for a single page
</div>```
