Title: OMR Fold Marks Looking for Help Hello all: I have been madly reviewing both the XSL-FO and FOP boards for an answer to the following question: How do I determine the amount of pages, in a document and the current page I am on. I think I may have to write an extension to determine

Editable PDF forms.

I don't think that it's the case that you can generate an editable pdf form from XSL-FO but if anyone has any techniques for doing so in post production, I would greatly appreciate the tips. Or, I could just be wrong and it is possible (yes,no?) Thanks, Trevor
