modifying the ouput of docbook sections usingdocbook-xsl-1.49 an d fop-0.20.3


Hi,
 
    I am using docbook-xsl-1.49 and fop-0.20.3 to produce PDFs. I was wondering if anyone has experience with extending the "fo" portion of docbook-xsl to cause section elements to not be split over multiple pages and to cause section elements to begin new pages.
 
I have a document of 5 Chapters each chapter has a sect1 and multiple sect2 each with sect3s and sect4s nested below. I would like sect1, sect2, sect3 to begin on new pages and I would like sect4 not to be split over multiple pages. This would greatly enhance the readability of the my document. Since I don't intend to print this doc very often I am more interested in readability than size.
 
I believe that I need to overide sections.xsl in the /fo dir but I would appreciate advise from anyone who has tried this or has another strategy for acomplishing it.
 
    Thanks
        Paul
