Hi,

There is no support for inserting PDFs as an external-graphic format
in fop-0.20.5. It is also not yet supported in FOP 0.9x, although
there are some workarounds.

In both versions you can use a PDF post-processor[2] (e.g., iText) to
manipulate the PDF outputted by FOP.

In the case of the fop-0.94, fop-0.95x & fop-TRUNK branch (the
currently developed branch of FOP), you can use the FOP Embedded PDF
plugin[2].

I hope this helps!
