Subject: [xsl] PDF Creation using FOP - No of lines per page

I created a FO out of my XSL and XML using Xalan then
I used FOP to convert my FO into PDF..  in my out put
pdf document.. the first page is a cover page and it
works fine and starting from the second page I wanted
to print the data.. everything works fine expect
that.. my pdf pages have only limited number of lines
i.e. around 10 lines after 10 lines it goes to the
next page..  leaving a major part of the page unused,
I just wanted to know why it is not using the whole
body area..  I am giving the XSL snippet here..
basically I want to know how to control the number of
lines per page in my output PDF

your help is highly appreciated
