Beginpage is here for legacy purposes -- e.g. you want to mark where page break was in printed version of document. But processing tools are not suppoused to create pagebreaks in places where <beginpage/> occur. You can put some PI in place where you want pagebreak: <?page-break?> and add something like <xsl:template match="processing-instruction('page-break')"> <fo:blok break-after="page"/> </xsl:template> Maybe we can reconsider adding support of common PIs for page and line breaks into standard XSL stylesheets. Generally it is not good idea to specify breaks manually, but sometimes it's reasonable solution. > P.S.: I think it would be good to add to the index section on > "http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/index.html", > that a simple <index /> tells processor where to put the > index. I searched for this hint some time. > thx to Jirka. This is true for XSL stylesheets, but other processing tools may behave differently. TDG describes DocBook as general document type. Details of processing should be specified in documentation of particular processing tools.
