Description
Long articles are broken into multiple pages on my site using the paging module and the inclusion of a
<--!pagebreak--> tag.
PDFview prints the first page of such paginated articles beautifully... but fails to print the other pages.
It's unfair to label that as a bug, I think, since it's an interaction with some other piece of code that's not (presumably) under your control. But without multi-page support, the PDFviewer's usefulness (to me, at any rate) is severely compromised to the point where it's not worth my using it.
Could we have multi-page support soon, please? Running the 5.1-dev version on Drupal 5.1 with PHP4.

I think this would be more easily accomplished in the paging module. Presumably, they intercept the display of a node and break it into pages. If it would recognize when a pdfview has been called and bypass its own behavior (not split the node into pages), then the node render call that pdfview makes would work just fine. Have you tried over at the other module?
