Overflowing to a new page is broken

[Vuccappella]

See example:

Steps to recreate: simply open up the default template (or any template) and add extra bullet points to the last job description titled Research Chef Intern, add a few copy pasted bulletpoints so that the position extends to the second page.

What you'll see happen is that the title of the position will remain on the 1st page, while all the bullet points will overflow and move to the second page and between the two a big gap of white space will be left. Instead what should happen is the bullet points should smoothly transition from page 1 to page 2 without a big air gap.

I tried fixing the issue with custom styles with limited success.

This is a serious issue as it limits almost all 2 page CVs

I have the exact same issue. I've also tried to fix it but without success.

Would you mind sharing your custom style solution? Maybe I could iterate from there :)

after trying many different things, I realized that in my case the issue was because I have added a picture at the top right of the page that was included in the calculation of the page size thus breaking the page too early.

moving the picture inside a <span></span> fixed the issue.

That being said, if my bullet points become tool long, the issue arrises again. I fix it by using \newpage between bullet points to move part of the list to the next page

I have to see what i exactly did to kind of fix it but I believe i added an empty <div style="margin-top: 15px;"><div/> tag between some of the bullet points towards the end of the page, I remember i had to experiment between which bullet I add it and how many pixels and it kinda fixed the issue.

I will try the \newpage tag and it probably functions the same way as my div fix by forcing content to the second page manually but for sure this issue is not isolated to using long bullets or pictures - as demonstrated in the screenshot this can also be recreated with the default template that has no pictures and uses bullets that are 1 to 2 lines long.

Also the div and newpage fixes arent perfect because you'll likey end up with 2 pages that have different margins due to the white space.
