Thanks Pascal, that did the trick.

Here are my new <page-sequence>s

<fo:page-sequence master-reference="pageSequence_TOC" format="i" 
initial-page-number="auto-odd" force-page-count="end-on-odd">...</>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="pageSequence_Section" format="1" 
initial-page-number="1" force-page-count="end-on-odd">...</>

I would have never been able to figure that out without help. For me at least 
there seems to be a disconnect between the name of the attribute and what it is 
meant to do. I look at initial-page-number and think only a number is a valid 
value. It's nice when FOP informs me when I have an illegal value used in an 
attribute or even a misspelling of an attribute but at the moment it doesn't 
seem to validate the FO. That is probably just an option I need to turn on. If 
not, I'm adding a step in my ANT task to validate my FO output so I can see 
where I have made an error as to its structure, especially placement of 
attributes.

Once again thanks Pascal. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Mario,

The force-page-count property applies only to fo:page-sequence.
You can get whant you want by using the property initial-page-number on
your fo:page-sequence objects.
Note you may need a blank page in your alternative sets id FOP has to
insert some extra blank pages, I.E. between TOP and Content sections.
