Page break lines?

Is there a way have lines showing page breaks (just for viewing in edit mode, not to print). In other words, an editable print preview?
Something so simple, which Word does, I thought for sure Textpad should be able to, but I can't for the life of me figure out how.

I'm not sure what you're asking for. But did you know that <Ctrl+Shift+L> inserts a page break?

just "lines showing page breaks", like this:

Unfortunately, Textpad doesn't have such a feature. It's been asked for a few times before (e.g. here and here).

Edit/Insert/Page Break
(ben_josephs provided shortcut keys: CTL-SH-L)

I guess I should have clarified (although the pic linked above shows and I mentioned Word, which does it), but I meant automatic page breaks for normal printed pages, which I wouldn't know where that would be to manually insert, nor would I want to for every page.

Thanks. What a shame. Seems like something any text editor other than notepad would have.
