first property CSS Reference



Definition and Usage

The :first page CSS pseudo-class describes the styling of the first page when printing a document.

Note: you cannot change all CSS properties. You can only change the margins, orphans, widows, and page breaks of the document. All other CSS properties will be ignored.


Examples

@page :first {
  margin: 2in 3in;
}

Note: you may only use the absolute length units when defining the margin. Please see the page about length for more information.
