page-position=last, FOP vs XEP
It has come to my attention that page-position=last is not yet implemented
in FOP. That is a big problem for the purpose I have. I tried with XEP (from
RenderX) and it seems to work here. The problem with XEP is a) it does note
support pcl output, which I need, and b) it is a Windows-only-thing, which
is also a problem.
I want to stick with FOP. Can anybody tell me when page-position=last will
be supported in FOP?

Probably Nwilan meant Antenna formatter, which is windows only. XEP written in
java hence is crossplatform app.

AFAIK, XEP is not limited to Windows.

No, it will be done during the redesign phase, but we can't give you a
date, yet. We were facing the same problem and therefore tried to change
(or to make our customers change) the layout so we didn't need the
page-position="last" functionality. Maybe it's also possible with your
layout.
