Hi Ken,
This seems to have worked. The only thing is that I had to add
force-page-count="no-force" to the fo:page-sequence for the Contents
section. Otherwise, I was getting a blank page between the contents and
the index. Thanks for all your help!

Thanks for the quick response. So basically I should:
1) Create a new simple page master for the revision pages
<fo:simple-page-master
master-name="RevPage"></fo:simple-page-master>
2) Create a new page master sequence:
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="RevIndex">
<fo:single-page-master-reference
master-reference="RevPage">
</fo:single-page-master-reference>
</for:page-master-sequence-master>
3) Create a new fo:page-sequence for the RevIndex
Let me know if I am on the right track or not.
Yes, you are on the right track Nadia, but there is a small problem
with your proposed use of objects above.
If your index were more than one page, then your RevIndex above would
run out of page geometries because you have only a
single-page-master-reference. Use repeatable-page-master-reference
to support more than one page.
And, more simply, one is not obliged to point page-sequence only to
page-sequence-masters ... you can simplify the above by pointing
directly to the desired page geometry that is being repeated by having:
<simple-page-master maser-name="RevPage">....
<page-sequence master-reference="RevPage">....
.... there is no need to always create a page-sequence master. I tell
my students to only use one when there is a need to describe
subsequences of patterns of page geometries ... though there is
nothing technically wrong with the extra layer of indirection to the
same thing as you've suggested above.
I hope this helps.
