Insert line between minipage but not at page end












1















I am doing a PHP script to write a .tex file.



Based in this insert a horizontal cut line, I want to "print" many block on one page, and between block I want draw a "cut line".



But I dont want draw a cut line at bottom of page.



The script write:




  • BLOCK

  • LINE

  • BLOCK

  • LINE

  • BLOCK

  • ...


For this example I am using minipage to avoid break the "block" and inserting the cut line between this "blocks"



EDITED now with an cycle method



documentclass[12pt]{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{pifont}
usepackage{fancyhdr}
fancyhf{}
renewcommand{headrulewidth}{0pt}
usepackage{lipsum}
usepackage[letterpaper, portrait, tmargin=8mm, bmargin=10mm]{geometry}
usepackage{pgffor}

begin{document}
This line its for fix width \
% JUST REPEAT BLOCK MANY TIMES (NOT REAL BUT WORKS FOR EXAMPLE)
foreach n in {1,...,3}{
% START BLOCK
begin{minipage}{textwidth}
textbf{{large Block Number n}} \
lipsum[2-4]
end{minipage}

vspace{baselineskip}
noindentdotfillding{33}dotfill
vspace{baselineskip}
% END BLOCK
}
end{document}


Example Code



As you can see in the image, the cut line it pointless at the end of the page, it does not should to be drawn/inserted



I think it can be solved using something like needspace, but I would not know how to start.
