Valid value	Description
auto	The User Agent determines which value of "media-usage" (other than the "auto" value) is used. The User Agent may consider the type of media on which the presentation is to be placed in making this determination.
paginate	A sequence of pages is generated from the fo:page-sequences that are children of the fo:root as described in .
bounded-in-one-dimension	Only one page is generated per fo:page-sequence descendant from the fo:root. Exactly one of "page-height" or "page-width" must be specified on the first page master that is used. The size of the page in the other dimension is determined by the content flowed into the page.
unbounded	Only one page is generated per fo:page-sequence descendant from the fo:root. Neither "page-height" nor "page-width" may be specified on any page master that is used. If a value is specified for either property, it is an error and a User Agent may recover by ignoring the specified value. Each page begins at the before-edge and start-edge of the page and the page extends as far as necessary toward the after-edge and end-edge to contain all the content of the page-sequence which generates the page.
