I am doing this in java, extending the keys is already done.
What I do not understand, is that the second footer is missing and overall
number of pages is wrong.
Why do I have to combine the layout master ? I only would like to append the
content.
The master of the first document should be kept as it is.
Or maybe I just misunderstood how page numbers are generated.

Best, Thomas

Betreff: Re: Page Numbers in PDF, Merging documents


Page x of y is usually implemented through page-number-citation in XSL-FO.
When merging documents you have to make sure that the page-number-citation
points at the correct "id". When combining documents you have to combine the
layout-master-set and then put the individual page-sequences after each
other. Furthermore, you need to make sure no "id" attributes will be
duplicate otherwise you may get errors during processing. I've once written
a stylesheet that duplicates an XSL-FO document n times into a single
resulting XSL-FO document. The key here is to prefix all the "id" and
"ref-id" attribute values so obtain unique IDs.
