Hi Meena,
fo:retrieve-marker is used (usually in the header) to retrieve the contents of an fo:marker which has been placed in the flow (body of the page). For instance, if someone is trying to build a phone book, you would do this for every phone book entry
<fo:block><fo:marker marker-class-name="entry">LastName</fo:marker>LastName, FirstName ...................... PhoneNumber</fo:block>
In the header you then create a table that places this on the left top of the page
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="entry" retrieve-boundary="page" retrieve-position="first-starting-within-page"/>
And this on the top right of the page
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="entry" retrieve-boundary="page" retrieve-position="last-starting-within-page"/>
And then, because you want a multi-column phone book, you'ld put a column count in the fo:region-body like this
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="page" (+sizing info)>
<fo:region-body column-count="3" (+sizing info)/>

Also, what does it mean by the following,
