The renderer should test if the page's start and end line are fully visible, and if the top one isn't, then move the page down slightly until it is, and if the last line is not visible, don't render it at all and make that line the top line of the next page.

Do you have a html page that demonstrates this...? I've converted a number of chm files to html for the Illiad, and so far I haven't noticed this problem... Yes, there are known issues with it but I wouldn't say its "broken"... And if there are known issues then let Irex know about them so they can be fixed...
I'm also surprised with everyones fascination with pdf. Yep, its handy as many documents come on pdfs, but as an on-screen format its very static, and its a very dumb format. (Or am I missing somekind of PDF scripting language...?)
