I don't have precise rules about what constructs to avoid, but forward references like "page N of NN" for example, can cause FOP to keep the whole document in memory until the number of pages is known. So I wouldn't say "larger than about 10 pages" but "depending on document size and complexity". -- Bertrand Delacrétaz (codeconsult.ch, jfor.org) buzzwords: XML, java, XSLT, cocoon, mentoring/teaching/coding. disclaimer: eternity is very long. mostly towards the end. get ready.
