Package Exports

slimer-html-pdf

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (slimer-html-pdf) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

avoid	Avoid page break inside the element (if possible)
initial	Sets this property to its default value.
inherit	Inherits this property from its parent element.
