Having just the force-page-count property on the subsequent page sequences should do the trick.
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="ContentPageMaster" force-page-count="no-force"> The page number on subsequent page sequences is a continuation from the previous page sequence in this case. ________________________________ From: Michael Niemann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2007 10:45 AM To: fop-users@xmlgraphics.apache.org Subject: How to keep pagenumber over several page-sequences hello, I've split up my document into several page-sequences for better performance. <xsl:for-each select="documentContent/chapter"> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="ContentPageMaster" initial-page-number="1" force-page-count="no-force"> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after"> <fo:block><fo:page-number /></fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body" > <fo:block font-size="24" font-weight="bold" border-bottom="solid black 1px" id="{generate-id()}" margin-bottom="20px"><xsl:value-of select="@page" /></fo:block> <fo:block><xsl:apply-templates /></fo:block> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </xsl:for-each> </fo:root> </xsl:template> As you can easily see each chapter now starts with page 1. Is it possible to pass the pagenumber between those sequences without losing all the performance gain I got from spolitting up the chapter into sequences? best regards michael ________________________________ Get easy, one-click access to your favorites.
