You can specify the region-before to not overlap the edge regions using precedence on region-before. Try this in your page-master:
<fo:region-before precedence="false" ... /> <fo:region-after precedence="false" ... /> <fo:region-end precedence="true" ... /> I don't know about the content overflowing the extent of the region-end, but give it a try.

My understanding of the start, end, before and after regions is that the start-region spans on the top of the document from the left all the way to the right (the same with region-after) and region-start (and end) spans _between_ region-before and region-after. If I'm wrong so please correct me. Another reason (I think) why I can't put it in the region-end area is that I want some content to flow over the border (sometimes I truly hate designers ;). My understanding as an (bad) ascii image... **************************** | I want my border from here... * Region-start * | **************************** | <-- One problem is here * * * * | * Region * * Region * | * - * Body * - * |...all the way... * start * * end * | * * * * | **************************** | <-- One problem is here * Region-end * | **************************** | ...down here with no margin to the right and no margin at the top or the bottom. I have put a header in the region-start and a footer in the region-end areas and they must be there so just putting the border in region-end won't solve the problem. /Marcus ----- Original Message ----- From: "Clay Leeds" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2003 8:16 PM Subject: Re: Fat, multi-colored, sideborder to the right > Oops!
