Hello Thomas,

Ah, now I can see your point. This is an implementation specific
feature of XEP. It is described in section "2. Non-Conformance Issues"
of "XSL Formatting Objects in XEP 3.6" (spec.pdf). We do suppress
empty block constructs and thus generation of empty pages, because
they pose a threat of an endless loop. If you still want your page to
be rendered you may add some 'invisible' content there such as empty
leader or nonbreaking space.

Best regards,
Alexander Peshkov                             mailto:peshkov at renderx.com

TBid> if a page does not contain any text the page is skipped...

TBid> this will not be rendered:

TBid> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="myMaster">
TBid>         <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
TBid>                 <fo:block-container [...] >
TBid>                         <fo:block-container background-image="url(bg.pdf)" 
[...] />>
TBid>                         <fo:block-container [...] >
TBid>                                 <fo:block [...] >
TBid>                                         <fo:inline 
TBid> font-family="Helvetica"></fo:inline>
TBid>                                 </fo:block>
TBid>                         </fo:block-container>
TBid>                 </fo:block-container>
TBid>         </fo:flow>
TBid> </fo:page-sequence>

TBid> but this will:

TBid>         <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
TBid>                 <fo:block-container [...] >

TBid>                                 <fo:block [...] >
TBid>                                         <fo:inline 
TBid> font-family="Helvetica">TEXT</fo:inline>
TBid>                                 </fo:block>
TBid>                         </fo:block-container>
