If there are 2 chapters, each consisting of 3 pages then it is printing 7 pages. The 4th one is being printed as blank.

The number of chapters are not known.
I tried setting the following page sequence :-
<fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="document" page-height ="297mm" page-width ="210mm" margin-left ="2mm" margin-right ="2mm"> <fo:region-body margin-top="100mm" margin-bottom="5mm" /> <fo:region-before extent="99mm"/> <fo:region-after extent="4mm"/> </fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="chapter">
<xsl:for-each select="/document/chapter">
<fo:repeatable-page-master-reference master-reference="document" />
</xsl:for-each>
The above is not necessary ... you need only specify page-sequence-master if you have changing page region geometry or perimeter region content. Since you have but one page master, you can simply point to it.
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> <fo:block break-before="page" /> ...... </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence>
But it doesn't work. It is printing only one page even if there is a break specified.
A page-sequence begins a new page. In your block you are specifying "this block must begin a new page" ... that condition is satisfied, so there is no blank page. Specifying break-before= is specifying a condition to be met, not a command to be executed.
Is it the right way to apply different page sequence for different chapter?
You don't give a lot of context, but working from the root node you need only do:
<xsl:for-each select="/document/chapter"> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="document" initial-page-number="1"> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-before">... <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after">... <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body"> .... </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </xsl:for-each>
I hope this helps.
