XSL-FO and XSLT can help each other.
Do you remember this example?
<fo:block font-size="14pt" font-family="verdana" color="red" space-before="5mm" space-after="5mm"> W3School </fo:block> <fo:block text-indent="5mm" font-family="verdana" font-size="12pt" space-before="5mm" space-after="5mm"> At CodeW3C.com you will find all the Web-building tutorials you need, from basic HTML and XHTML to advanced XML, XSL, Multimedia and WAP. </fo:block>
Result:

This example is from the section about XSL-FO block region.
Help from XSLT
Remove XSL-FO Information from Document:
<header> W3School </header> <paragraph> At CodeW3C.com you will find all the Web-building tutorials you need, from basic HTML and XHTML to advanced XML, XSL, Multimedia and WAP. </paragraph>
Add XSLT Transformation:
<xsl:template match="header"> <fo:block font-size="14pt" font-family="verdana" color="red" space-before="5mm" space-after="5mm"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </fo:block> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="paragraph"> <fo:block text-indent="5mm" font-family="verdana" font-size="12pt" space-before="5mm" space-after="5mm"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </fo:block> </xsl:template>
The resulting output is the same:
