Hi Jeremias,
I modified one of the examples, based on
"examples/fo/pagination/franklin_2pageseqs.fo" and added a last page
sequence to it.
see http://users.bigpond.net.au/buddy/fop/lastpagespans.fo
The example is not 2 columns but the bug is evident with no columns. If
you remove the
last fo:block with the span all the PDF renders correctly.
Page-position="last"
seems to be a factor here.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Adam

Column balancing is known to have some oddities. page-position="last" is
pretty new so it may well be that there are some problems left. An FO
file demonstrating the problem would be welcome.

Hi everybody, Need some help or may have found a bug
I have a complex page sequence below. I'm using the current FOP Trunk release BTW. Some background setup info:
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="contents" >
<fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="leftPage"
odd-or-even="even"
page-position="first"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="rightPage"
odd-or-even="odd"
page-position="first" />
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="leftPage"
odd-or-even="even"
page-position="rest"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="rightPage"
odd-or-even="odd"
page-position="rest"
/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="lastLeftPage"
page-position="last"
odd-or-even="even"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
master-reference="lastRightPage"
page-position="last"
odd-or-even="odd"/>
</fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>
with a sample of the page: most a like this one
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="rightPage"
page-height="297mm"
page-width="210mm"
margin-top="20mm"
margin-bottom="59mm"
margin-left="25mm"
margin-right="59mm">
<fo:region-body
column-count="2"
column-gap="5mm"
margin-top="9mm"
margin-bottom="10mm" />
<fo:region-before region-name="rightHeader" extent="10mm" />
<fo:region-after
display-align="after" region-name="rightFooter" extent="5mm" />
</fo:simple-page-master>
last page has a bigger footer due to extra info, see
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="lastRightPage"
page-height="297mm"
page-width="210mm"
margin-top="20mm"
margin-bottom="59mm"
margin-left="25mm"
margin-right="59mm">
<fo:region-body
column-count="2"
column-gap="5mm"
margin-top="9mm"
margin-bottom="95mm"/>
<fo:region-before region-name="rightHeader" extent="10mm"
/>
<fo:region-after display-align="after" region-name="lastRightFooter" extent="95mm" />
</fo:simple-page-master>
As you can see I'm using two columns. The problem I'm getting is that
the content stops flowing to the last page area when a <fo:block
span="all">XXX</fo:block> is to appear last in the <fo:flow>. Soemtimes
the last page displays with XXX at the top if its the last block. The
main issue is that the second last page data is missing altogther. The
second last page that renders is really the 3rd last. If I remove the
span block it work fine. I can render with XSL Formatter V3.4 Trial fine.
Also towards the last 4 or so pages the column balance does a poor job.
Sometimes the first column is full to the bottom of the page and second
is emty. At the bottom of the page is a fo:block span = all for a new
title. I'm producing documents in the range of 20-40 pages long.
Is this a known problem? I'll also see if I can put together a sample
file as the content is confidential.
