The basic page margin is in the page setup.

This works at the top level but sets the same margin for all pages.
What if I want each page to be different?
I can assign this attribute from an xsl:variable if I create that variable above the <fo:layout-master-set> section. If I assign a value for it down below within the <fo:page-sequence> it doesn't seem to have an effect.

I generate the XML myself to calculate what goes on each page, so the page processing looks like this.
<fo:page-sequence>
<fo:flow>
<xsl:for-each select="PD">
<fo:block>
<xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute>

I tried moving that margin-top attribute to that fo:block and it doesn't look like it's having any effect, though it does indent my text blocks if I add a margin-left to that block.


I suspect you have to define your simple-page-masters, filling in the margin values, then lay out their order of appearance(s) in a page-sequence-master.
