Hi Paul,
Actually, it is the fo:block inside the cell that is applying the inherited
font-size and line-height, probably from the header.content.properties
attribute-set, which is applied to the fo:block that contains the header
table.
In header.content, you should be able to use <xsl:attribute> elements as
the first thing in each <xsl:when> clause to apply attributes to the
fo:block containing that content. Any xsl:attribute elements must come
first when a block is started, before any content.
<xsl:when test="$position ...">
<xsl:attribute name="line-height">0pt</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="font-size">0pt</xsl:attribute>
<fo:external-graphic ...

Hi Bob,
Only got back to this problem now.... I tried your suggestion, and the
result is at
http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=headerwithcolorle3.png. It just
seems that something is forcing space before (and indeed, a small amount
of
space after) the left-hand graphic. (The yellow and blue colors indicate
the
left-most and right-most cells in the header table, respectively, while
the
left-hand pink indicates the background of the graphic). Nothing in the
.fo
file seemed to indicates where this space is from.
Then I remembered an answer you gave to a previous question I had about
unwanted space before graphics
(http://www.nabble.com/forum/ViewPost.jtp?post=9620007&framed=y) so I
edited the .fo and, for the header cell containing the graphic, set both
line-height and font-size to zero. That works! Result is here:

Unfortunately, I have _no_ idea how to do this in my custom layer. The
instructions at
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PrintHeaders.html#PrintHeadersText
don't
seem to indicate that such a problem might happen, and only describes how
to
specify the content of the cells, and not the attributes of the cells
themselves. Any ideas? Is there perhaps a setting in my custom layer
which
is causing this problem?
Thanks,
P.
