Hi,
The toc.margin.properties attribute set can be used to add the page break. See the example near the end of this section:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PrintToc.html#PageMargins

A link to this page is found in the index of the book under "table of contents, page break".

You can do this easily in your customization layer

<!-- ==================================================================== -->
<!-- PI to generate a hard page break -->
<!-- to apply a hard page break do
<?hard-pagebreak?>, <?page-break?> or <?pb?>
in the xml text -->
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('pb')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>     <!-- END match="processing-instruction('pb')"  -->
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('page-break')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>     <!-- END match="processing-instruction('page-break')"  -->
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('hard-pagebreak')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>     <!-- END match="processing-instruction('hard-pagebreak')"  
-->

No need to specify 'how much space' and put this anywhere.

Hi Ron

Thanks. However, I think I failed to explain myself properly. The problem I have is not 'how do I insert a hard page break?', it is 'given that the toc is generated content, where do I insert the hard break?'. The content is a fairly standard DocBook article with no TOC. We're taking advantage of the automatically generated toc so there isn't anywhere to place the PI in my content!

cheers

nic
