Hi Eric,
Thanks for the swift response.
Here's the layout master set:
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="main" page-height="11.69in"
page-width="8.27in" margin="0.50in">
<fo:region-body margin-top="0.75in" margin-bottom="0.75in"
column-count="1" column-gap="0.50in" />
<fo:region-after extent="0.50in" padding-before="0"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="officers">
<fo:region-body margin-top="0.75in" margin-bottom="0.75in"
column-count="1" column-gap="0.50in" />
<fo:region-after extent="0.50in" padding-before="0"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
I'm then specifying the page-sequences as follows
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="main" initial-page-number="auto" format="1"
force-page-count="no-force">
.... some data
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="officers" initial-page-number="1"
force-page-count="no-force" format="a">
.... some data
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="main" initial-page-number="auto" format="1">
.... some data
in the attempt to see if master-reference="main" kept a reference on what the
last page was on the previous 'main' sequence (more of a shot in the dark :)
I reference the page numbers in the following way for the "main" sequences.
// This creates the 1,2,3,4,5,6
<fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after">
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-weight="bold"><xsl:text>Page:
</xsl:text></fo:inline><fo:page-number font-weight="bold"/>
</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
On the last part of the first "main" sequence I place a <fo:block
id="endOfOfficers"></fo:block> element.
I then reference the page numbers within the "officers" sequence in the
following way:
// This creates the 3a,3b,3c,3e,3f etc
<fo:block>
<fo:inline font-weight="bold"><xsl:text>Page: </xsl:text></fo:inline>
<fo:page-number-citation ref-id="endOfOfficers"/><fo:page-number/>
</fo:block>
I think I could fix it if I could pass in the <fo:page-number-citation ref-id
into the next page-sequence initial-page-number value, but don't know how too.
Would this have to be done within a two pass solution? And if so how would I
get that value?
If a more complete example is needed I can mail directly. Thanks for your help.

How are you determining and displaying the page number?
We'd need to see some code (xml,xsl,fo) to determine why it isn't working or
how it should work.
There shouldn't be any issues if you're writing the values of each page to your
xml and setting the page numbers into tag values.

Subject: Page numbering help
Hi,
I have searched the forums but have not been able to find a solution to my
problem.
I am trying to create a document that will have specific page numbering like
the one below:
1,2,3,3a,3b,3c,3d,3e,3f,4,5,6,7,8
I have been able to produce a document that goes up to 3f using a combination
of
page-number-citation
page-sequence
But when I restart another page sequence for pages 4-8 it uses the last page
sequence for the start value (ie g = 7) so I get:
1,2,3,3a,3b,3c,3d,3e,3f,7,8,9,10,11
The problem is I cannot guarantee that the sub sections will always start on
page 3, and the number of subsections a,b,c are very likely to change on each
document created?
I'm sure there's a neat solution, but I cant see the wood for the trees at the
mo :)
