Hello Laurent,
Surely flow content can't affect page size in XSL-FO. However I was
talking about use of XSLT preprocessing in order to pre-define page
size somehow. If you describe your use case/workflow in more details
I'll try to make more specific suggestions.
Best regards,

LFma> Hi Alexander,
>>>If you know your advertisement size beforehand you can generate

LFma> I don't think this can be done with XSL-FO. :-(

LFma> Hello Laurent,
LFma> I'm not quite sure I understood your requirements fully.
LFma> The size of the page can be specified explicitly at
LFma> fo:simple-page-master element using page-width/page-height properties.
LFma> If you know your advertisement size beforehand you can generate
LFma> appropriate XSL-FO using XSLT stylesheet which, for example, takes
LFma> advertisement size as a parameter.
LFma> Hope this helps.

LFma>> Imagine an advertisement generator for a newspaper based on XML + XSL-FO.
LFma>> Is it possible to generate a PDF with a variable page size? I would like find out the generated size of the advertisement for accounting purposes.
LFma>> If the advertisement has a size 200 mm -> $ xxx
201 - 300 ->>> $yyy
LFma>> etc etc
LFma>> Does anyone know if this can be done at all, or should I look for different approach to determine the size of the advertisement?
