When either a scene or a bit of dialogue spans a page-break  
indicators are placed in the scene and in the dialogue that tell you  
the scene, or bit of dialogue, continues on the next page. It looks  
like this:



INT. STORE ROOM - NIGHT

Darcy sits alone.

                     DARCY
           I can't stand just waiting here.
                 (more)

                                           (CONT'D)

-----------------Page-Break-----------------------

(CONT'D:)

                     DARCY (CONT'D)
           Give me something, anything...



The only place this pops up in is when printing to PDF. As of now the  
PDF creation is handled by PrinceXml, so prince determines where the  
page-breaks should go. Because prince is deciding where the page- 
breaks go prince would need to determine when it needs to place the  
"continued" indicators.

I'm using Prince because it's easy to install and I can leverage the  
HTML conversion I can do to create the PDF. People have suggested  
that I could get much more sophesticated odcuments using LaTex but  
I've found it to be a large download, a pain to install, and yet  
another document language I'd have to learn. So, I'm not too  
interested at this point.

But to be frank, this issue is not a priority.
