Hi Matthias, The specific document I was working on had a series of 'chapters' that were more or less independent. My initial approach had all of the 'chapters' as part of a single page-sequence. When I switched to 1 page-sequence/chapter, it made a HUGE difference. I'm not terribly familiar

lpkhoo, Just on the point of pixel conversion - there is no rigorously defined value for pixel. The FOP code assumes 1 point per pixel, but the actual size is up to the implementation and the medium, and may vary in the vertical and horizontal directions. Users are warned in the spec agains
