Will result to waste of paper though use of
<?my-pagebreak?> in the document where a page break is needed and in the
XSL stylesheet the following should solve
<xsl:template match="processing-instruction('my-pagebreak')">
<fo:block break-before='page'/>
</xsl:template>

<emphasis role="bold">Some text</emphasis> so use of role is the key
here.
