Blank Pages between Page Sequences.

[Puppala, Kumar (LNG-DAY)]

I have the document which uses the following page-sequences:   <fo:layout-master-set> .......... Have 'first', 'rest' and 'cover-end-page' page-sequences defined here.... .......... .........  <fo:page-sequence-master    master-name="cover-end-sequence">        <fo:repeatable-page-master-reference master-reference="cover-end-page"/> </fo:page-sequence-master>   <fo:page-sequence-master master-name="document">      <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>        <fo:conditional-page-master-reference page-position="first"          master-reference="first"/>        <fo:conditional-page-master-reference page-position="rest"          master-reference="rest"/>      </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>    </fo:page-sequence-master>  </fo:layout-master-set>     Now if I try to render a document containing 'cover-end-sequence' followed by 'document' sequence, the different case results are as shown:   Case 1:     If the cover-end-sequence rendering content fits in a single page and the 'intial-page-number' property is set on the 'document' sequence:   In this case, a blank page is inserted between these two sequences.   Case 2:     If the cover-end-sequence rendering content extends more than a single page:    In this case the document is rendered without any blank page ( the correct behavior) irrespective of the intial-page-number' property on the 'document' sequence.   Case 3:     If the cover-end-sequence rendering content fits in a single page and the 'intial-page-number' property is not set on the 'document' sequence:    In this case the document is rendered without any blank page ( the correct behavior).   Case 4:   If we use the 'document' page-sequence-master as shown below (not containing any 'fo:conditional-page-master-reference' objects):                         <fo:page-sequence-master master-name="document">                                     <fo:single-page-master-reference master-reference="first"/>                                     <fo:repeatable-page-master-reference master-reference="rest"/>                         </fo:page-sequence-master> In this case the document is rendered without any blank page ( the correct behavior).   Does anyone know if there is a way to get the correct behavior in Case 1. I have tested this using AntennaHouse and found similar results. I am not sure if this is a bug in both Apache and AntennaHouse (0R) if it is the desired behavior. Any input is greatly appreciated.     Thanks, Kumar Puppala
