Re: [xsl] XSL-FO: Drawing a line around every page

["Betty Harvey" <harvey@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Put a border on your fo:region-body.

Below works for RenderX.

 <fo:region-body display-align="center"
            border="thin double black"/>

For fop you will need to specify the border parameters individually, i.e.,
border-right, border-left, etc.

Good luck!
