Does Adobe HTML to PDF service support CSS3's GCPM, or CSS Paged Media Module Level 3? From testing, it does not support GCPM at all, and only partially supports CSS Paged Media Module Level 3. Is there a specific CSS format that Adobe supports?

    Short answer, no. CSS Paged Media Module Level 3 is still in draft.

    Long answer, I've had some success with paged.js to do the things that you can do if we had module 3. It really depends on the HTML though.

    Thank you. I have looked into paged.js, and it does a good job of chunking HTML contents into pages so that it can be displayed in browser. However, my end goal is still rendering a PDF file, and if the chunked HTML from paged.js doesn't actually match up with the PDF generated by Adobe, it kind of defeats the purpose of using paged.js ...

    With paged.js, it prints the way it looks on screen.
