Different region-after on last page

[Jochen Isselhard <Is...@bigalke.de>]

Hi,

is there any known workaround to do a different region-after on the last
page?

As i know the page-position "last"
(
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="last"
page-position="last"/>
)
ist not yet supportet by FOP (20.5)

thanks

Jochen

I think he was referring to the example that comes with FOP
( examples\fo\markers\hide.fo )

Jorg,

Could you pleases gave the URL of the : SVG "hide" example ?

Thanks,

The usual recommendations:
a) If the different content can use the same region extent, use
   markers. Getting this working reliably can be tricky though.
   Defining an absolutely positioned block-container which hides
   the regular static content is one of many approaches, also have
   a look at the SVG "hide" example.
b) If you want to add additional content above the common static
   content, like the usual legal notices, use a footnote with no
   inline marker in an empty block at the end of the flow. Again,
   if the normal flow fills enough of the last page that the
   additional content wont fit anymore, you'll get all kind of
   unpleasant effects, including NPEs. A properly placed forced page
   break somewhere earlier can fix this, but this isn't quite
   automatic anymore.
   BTW every implementation faces the same problem, which is one of
   the two major reasons that "last" page masters aren't implemented.
c) If you have a larger region-after oin the last page, and the
   whole content has to change, either combine both methods above
   (tricky), or abuse the bug with row-spanning table cells for
   a controlled overflow of the footnote in the region-after.
