Actually, if one prints out the documents and leaves the soft page breaks the
text does go to the next page. If there are hard breaks, too, the printer also
recognizes those and one can get pages with just a few lines on them.
I don't know what happens with Braille or Daisy readers but I think it's
desirable to get rid of the soft breaks. This can be done by changing the side
margins as well as the paper length, or by making the font smaller.
