Chris,
1) There is indeed a limitation in XEP: markers won't work
across page sequences. (Technically, this is due to the
necessity to ensure inheritance of properties in the
backward direction). Our documentation lacks indication
of this; we will fix it in the next maintenance release.
Thank you for the feedback.
1) Your example won't work anyway :-). Even with
retrieve-boundary="document", only markers from
preceding pages are eligible for selection into the
retrieve-marker.
Best regards,
Nikolai Grigoriev

Subject: [xep-support] Retrieve Markers Issue
Hi all,
I have noticed in XEP 3.8, that it is not possible to retrieve markers across
page-sequences, regardless of the retrieve-boundary setting. Here is a small
FO sample that demonstrates this problem:
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="toc" page-height="297mm"
page-width="210mm" margin="5mm">
<fo:region-body margin-top="100mm"/>
<fo:region-before region-name="toc" extent="100mm"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="main" page-height="297mm"
page-width="210mm" margin="5mm">
<fo:region-body/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="toc">
<fo:static-content flow-name="toc">
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="entry1"
retrieve-boundary="document" retrieve-position="first-starting-within-page"/>
<fo:retrieve-marker retrieve-class-name="entry2"
retrieve-boundary="document" retrieve-position="first-starting-within-page"/>
</fo:static-content>
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<fo:block>This is the first page sequence</fo:block>
<fo:block>
<fo:marker marker-class-name="entry1"><fo:block>Chapter 1</fo:block></fo:marker>
</fo:block>
<fo:block id="chap1">Chapter 1</fo:block>
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="main">
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<fo:block>This is the second page sequence</fo:block>
<fo:block>
<fo:marker marker-class-name="entry2"><fo:block>Chapter 2</fo:block></fo:marker>
</fo:block>
<fo:block id="chap2">Chapter 2</fo:block>
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>
</fo:root>
Chris
