Thanks Ken,
post-processing indeed seems a sensible idea

Hi all,
Anyone out there with some experience using Dita Open Toolkit for PDF.
I have to change some stuff others did based on the "idiom
technologies" customisation
(code seems messy at first sight)
I need to break out of the body-sequence master reference (A4 or
folio) for A3 images
the map has topics in parts directly and in chapters in parts
part/topic and part/chapter/topic
the page sequence is started on the part level, the images are in topics,
so I might need to break in the middle of a chapter
Does anyone have a view on how to elegantly break this.
Grouping would mean pulling in all the chapter logic as well.
That is how I would tackle this, but given the code base that would
be a risky job
Or is there a XSL:FO magic wand that can overrule the page size for
a brief moment (keeping all the other page master settings).
That would be the killer app in this case
If you can pass the output XSL-FO through a second process before
sending it to the XSL-FO engine, you could consider using the PSMI
semantic that I published years ago:

Though the exemplar used is a table needing new page geometry, it
work just as well with an image needing new page geometry.
I hope this helps.
