    Hello Nicholas,

    You can pass parameters to the XSLT stylesheet that will set
    initial-page-number for you. XSLT parameters can be specified on XEP
    command-line as described in our documentation:
    http://xep.xattic.com/xep/doc/userguide.html#Command-Line_XEP
    As for the usage of XSLT parameters in general - I think it is
    described in the most of XSLT references/books. For example there is
    good book with free excerpts from Ken Holman (take a look here:
    http://www.cranesoftwrights.com/training/), there are also several
    mailing lists dedicated to XSLT (main ones are listed on our site at
    http://xep.xattic.com/xep/lists.html).

    Hope this helps.

    Best regards,

    NG> Again thanks for clearing that up for me.

    NG> Hello Nicholas,

    NG> The 'initial-page-number' attribute should be set on
    fo:page-sequence
    NG> element.
    NG> Regarding your questions about spanning blocks: elements with
    NG> span="all" allowed only as direct children of fo:flow element and as
    NG> far as I know there is no way to circumvent this limitation.
    NG> Therefore I recommend you to return a step back and look if you can
    NG> change something at document-generation stage in order to avoid
    NG> the necessity for spanning blocks deeper in elements hierarchy.
