I'm at work right now, so I can't give you a detailed answer just yet. I've done the same thing. Basically, you can do this two ways:
1. include a page break in your block
<fo:block break-after="page" ...
2. Probably better for your purposes, call on your own page sequences. Mine looks like this:
<xsl:template match="d:article">
<xsl:variable name="id">
<xsl:call-template name="object.id"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">
<xsl:with-param name="master-reference">titlepage</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="content">
<fo:block id="{$id}"
xsl:use-attribute-sets="component.titlepage.properties">
<xsl:call-template name="article.titlepage"/><!--my own custom title page so won't work for you-->
</fo:block>
<fo:block break-after="page"/>
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
<xsl:call-template name="make.article.tocs"/>
<xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">
<xsl:with-param name="master-reference">body</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="content">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="*[not(self::bibliography)]"/>
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
<xsl:if test="$long.table != ''">
<xsl:call-template name="make-long-tables"/>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="bibliography">
<xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">
<xsl:with-param name="master-reference">back</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="content">
<xsl:apply-templates select="bibliography"/>
</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

So I'm having a hard time comprehending how to properly build a custom
titlepage specification XML file.
I've got the process down -- create the specification XML, transform it
using the template/titlepage.xsl stylesheet to generate a custom XSL
titlepage stylesheet, then import that into my regular customization
stylesheet.
What I can't figure out is how to actually write the template. My document
is an <article>, and in print format I want it to start out with a single
front title page, including the title, subtitle, a couple of PNG images, and
a date. Then a second page containing the revision history, and finally a
third page with the table of contents.
I've based my titlepage spec file on the <t:titlepage t:element="article"
t:wrapper="fo:block"
font-family="{$title.fontset}">...</t:titlepage> section of the
titlepage.templates.xml file, I have no transformation errors and it's
definitely using the custom template, as if I (for example) remove the
revhistory section from the spec file, it disappears from my final document.
However, nothing I've tried seems to generate a page break, and I'm not
quite grasping how to embed and position the graphics either.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
