Creating a master page template in XSL for rendering using Apache FOP

I need all my ren开发者_运维百科dered pages conform to a specific template.

So I want to create a master page template in XSL. Initially i thought i shall make use of

flow-maps but however flowmaps are not supported by FOP (XSL 1.0). Kindly suggest an

alternative to create a master page template for my output files.

what about implementing a preprocessing of the fo-files? So you have your master-template stored in a file. And then you have your fo-files with your custom page-masters containg a placeholder like $insertmasterhere$.

The preprocessing will insert the master-template in all custom page-masters. You could do it with java and String replace functions.
