Why is dotted line and <h2>Padding</h2> is being displayed in page1 instead of page2 in print preview

THIS IS MY CSS section{ min-height:100vh; padding:1rem; border-bottom:2px dotted #666; background-color:azure; } THIS IS MY HTML <section> <h2>Padding</h2> <p>Padding immediately surrounds the content area. Padding is often used to give the content area some breathing room by separating the content from the surrounding border area.</p> </section>

When I check the print preview in the workspace, page 2 begins with the "Beginning developers ..." paragraph, then the dotted line, then the next header. But that all seems correct based on the amount of material displayed on page 1.

It differs from the video example primarily because of the size of the illustration in the "box model" section, which is significantly smaller and floated left in the video. There's also an extra paragraph in the first section in the video. If you add that paragraph and also use the same CSS for the image as in the video, you'll get a similar print layout:

css-changes.css 
.small-img {
  float: left;
  width: 300px;
  margin: 0 1rem 1rem 0;
}

So the issue I see is page1 is rolling over to page 2, why?

You can't share a direct URL to your workspace, it's temporary and only exists while you are using it. Click the highlighted word in my previous answer for a video about creating and sharing a workspace snapshot.
