I dont think you will be >able to acheive what you want using XSL-FO, but I wish you luck, Must agree on this one. Don't know exactly what the intention is, but could it be that you want to use FOP to generate one big pdf that needs to be cut at specific places afterwards? In that case, isn't it possible to chop up the task beforehand ( meaning the need to know where the file has to be split disappears )? Maybe then the xml+xsl -> pdf transformation will be of any help? If not, it will at least render you a bunch of loose pdfs that you can manipulate with a lib like iText... ( perhaps, the whole lib even suits your needs better? ) Dunno, just brainstorming... Hope it helps.
