Tiptap Pages: Word-style layouts in your editor

Hey everyone! Philip here, Co-founder at Tiptap, the open-source text editor framework used by thousands of dev teams to build collaborative and smart editors.

We’ve launched Tiptap Pages into live beta, a new extension that adds pagination, page layouts, headers, footers, and structure to your Tiptap editor.

If you’re building anything that looks like a document editor but ends up hacked together in an infinite scroll, this is for you.

The Problem

Most rich text editors treat documents as one long, continuous scroll.

That works for notes. But not for:

• Contracts with signature blocks that must land on the right page
• RFPs and government proposals with strict page counts
• Exams, policies, or legal docs where structure really matters
• PDFs that actually need to look like the document you typed

Adding “real” document behavior (pages, breaks, headers, print formatting) is hard to maintain.

What We Built

Tiptap Pages brings page awareness to your editor.

Visual page layouts
Choose A4, Letter, Legal, or define your own. Layouts reflect actual document dimensions.

Smart pagination
Content flows across pages with clean, logical breaks

Dynamic headers and footers
Insert page numbers, section names, document metadata, and custom elements.

Custom node support
Build and export structured content the way your product needs it, including callouts, exhibits, and embeds.

Built for developers
Extend behavior, apply custom styling, and integrate deeply with your stack.

Pages is now available on Team and Growth plans.

Why We Built It

Docs still matter, especially in verticals like legal, fintech, govtech, insurtech, and education. But those documents don’t live in Word forever. They’re part of the tools you’re building.

Teams using Tiptap were already trying to force structure into an unstructured model. We built Pages to give them something better, not just for writing, but for layout, formatting, and final delivery.

If you’ve ever faked a page break with extra line breaks… you get it.

Our Ask

We’d love feedback from developers building products with structured documents.

• Try the demo and tell us what breaks.
• Share what your team would need next (collaboration? AI? export formats?).
• If you’re in one of the verticals above, let’s chat.
