Now I have:
<xsl:template match="doc">
<fo:root>
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="PageMaster">
<xsl:attribute
name="page-height">297mm</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute
name="page-width">210mm</xsl:attribute>
<fo:region-body background-color="#CCCCCC">
<xsl:attribute name="column-count">
<xsl:value-of
select="$column-count"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</fo:region-body>
<fo:region-before extent="10mm"
display-align="after"/>
<fo:region-after extent="10mm"
display-align="before"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="PageMaster"
background-color="#FFFFFF" >
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"
background-color="#FFFFFF" margin="15mm 15mm 15mm 15mm">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>
</fo:root>
</xsl:template>
But I can't get the background of the columns set white. Also the margin
works only for left and right, not for top and bottom.
Any Ideas?
