[xep-support] Re: Unexplained page break

Don't do this:

<fo:block space-after="0.4cm"/>

Do this:

<fo:block space-after="0.4cm"><fo:leader/></fo:block>

Or better, don't do that at all and put the proper space on the preceding
block or the following block.

The empty, collapsing block breaks keeps.

You have that empty block at the end of all the other sections except the
first. Replace it with the structure I suggest and you get the answer you
expect.

And get the totally expected result. So your description possible does not
match what you actually have.

Subject: [xep-support] Unexplained page break

I have a document which is throwing a page break, and I was hoping you could
help me understand why.

The document is very simple, it has one page sequence with a single
region-body flow. This contains a number of blocks, each has the
keep-together.within-page="always" attribute. I need each block to be kept
intact, with page breaks between as necessary.

For some reason, I am getting a page break after the first block, with the
remaining blocks all appearing on the next page. If I delete one of the
later blocks, I get the expected behaviour. It's obviously something to do
with the keeps but I don't understand why it would throw a break after the
first block. If I remove the keep from the last block, then it flows as
expected, but some of the content from the last block appears on the next
page.

I can provide FO to reproduce the problem if required.
