I have 2 .fo files that I'm trying to integrate into a single XSL-FO template that I hope to use to generate a 2-page PDF file. Each .fo file uses all absolutely positioned block containers. They are, in fact, the output from an FO editor (XSLFast).
I tried merging the .fo files and placing a break-before="page" in the 1st block-container element that came from the second .fo file. Since all the block-containers are absolutely positioned, this element is not necessarily the first element that would normally be encountered in the flow. However, the page break does not work, and I end up with a 1 page PDF with the contents of both pages overlaid on top of each other. I've also tried: * Using break-after="page" * Nesting the entire contents of the 1st and second pages in a block-container element, but that did not work either. How can I get a 2-page PDF from my .fo files? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE xml [<!ENTITY copy "©"> <!ENTITY trade "™"> <!ENTITY deg "°"> <!ENTITY gt ">"> <!ENTITY sup2 "²"> <!ENTITY frac14 "¼"> <!ENTITY quot """> <!ENTITY frac12 "½"> <!ENTITY euro "€"> <!ENTITY Omega "Ω"> ]> <!-- Document generated with XSLfast v1.3 --> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:fox="http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions"; xmlns:print="http://www.jcatalog.com/com.jcatalog.output.xslextensions.print .PrintElementFactory" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"; version="1.1" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon"; extension-element-prefixes="saxon print" > <xsl:variable name="currentDate" >01-03-2004 10:47:11</xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="IMAGEEXT">gif</xsl:variable> <xsl:template match="xml"> <fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="pagemaster1" page-height="792.0pt" page-width="612.0pt"> <fo:region-body margin-left="20pt" margin-top="8pt" margin-bottom="8pt" margin-right="18pt"/> <fo:region-before extent="8pt"/> <fo:region-after extent="8pt" /> <fo:region-start extent="20pt" /> <fo:region-end extent="18pt" /> </fo:simple-page-master> </fo:layout-master-set> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="pagemaster1"> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-before" > </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after" > </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-start" > </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-end" > </fo:static-content> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </fo:root> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="alphafactbookupdate"> <!-- *** Page 1 content *** --> <fo:block-container position="absolute" top="183pt" left="390pt" height="343.0pt" width="23.0pt" > <fo:block> <fo:instream-foreign-object> <svg:svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"; width = "8.0" height="328.0"> <svg:g style="stroke:#b3b9c9; stroke-width:1.0"> <svg:line x1="2.0pt" y1="2.0pt" x2="2.0pt" y2="322.0pt" /> </svg:g> </svg:svg> </fo:instream-foreign-object> </fo:block> </fo:block-container> <!-- OFFSET = 1.0 --> <fo:block-container position="absolute" top="183pt" left="569pt" height="343.0pt" width="23.0pt" > <fo:block> . . . <fo:block-container position="absolute" top="578pt" left="5pt" height="25.0pt" width="565.0pt" > <fo:block > <xsl:variable name="filename">../../fundimages/head_top_ten_long.gif</xsl:variable> <fo:external-graphic src="{$filename}" position="relative" top="586pt" left="25pt"/> </fo:block> </fo:block-container> <!-- ********** PAGE 2 ************* --> <fo:block-container break-before="page" position="absolute" top="1pt" left="392pt" height="225.0pt" width="180.0pt" > <fo:block > <xsl:variable name="filename"><xsl:value-of select="fundimages/stylebox/styleboxdata"/></xsl:variable> <fo:external-graphic src="{$filename}" position="relative" top="9pt" left="410pt"/> </fo:block> . . . </fo:block-container> <!-- ********** END PAGE 2 ********* --> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
