    I have ditamap for Glossary with glossrefs.
    When I generate PDF, all terms are at separate pages (with page breaks).
    I have tried adding outputclass="page-break-avoid" but it does not work.
    How can I avoid page breaks in any other way?

    I have spotted one more strange thing about tracking changes in PDF - when I add several paragraphs of text with lists and sections, huge indents are added. This also happens when I highlight text. Is there any parameter(s) in CSS to remove indents?
