Hi,

Question: How can I put "Continued overpage" at the bottom of the first page of a sequence if the sequence happens to produce 2 or more pages but not supply when it only produces 1 page?

Any help or insight into this would be greatful? I've tried using markers but cant get the desired result. Is is possible to supply a choice of first pages depending on the repeatable-page-master-alternatives matches?

This is achievable using markers or fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives. The key to getting the R-P-M-A working is to order the conditional-page-master-reference correctly.

e.g.

<fo:simple-page-master master-name="first">
        <fo:region-body margin-bottom="2cm"/>
        <fo:region-after region-name="continued" extent="2cm"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="rest">
        <fo:region-body margin-bottom="2cm"/>
        <fo:region-after region-name="continued" extent="2cm"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="last">
        <fo:region-body/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:page-sequence-master>
        <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="last" page-position="last"/> <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="rest" page-position="first"/> <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="rest" page-position="rest"/>
        </fo:repeatble-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>


Notice that the reference to last is first in the list. This means if you have a one page document, the last master will be selected. If you placed it last in the list of alternatives, then the first one is selected for your first page.

HTH,

Chris
