Hi Colin,
Actually, I think either method should work. As long as the outer blocks don't
have any content of their own, their font properties should not affect the
spacing.

Ah, I forgot that there's another fo:block above what you put in
header.content:
<fo:block>
<xsl:call-template name="header.content">
<xsl:with-param name="pageclass" select="$pageclass"/>
<xsl:with-param name="sequence" select="$sequence"/>
<xsl:with-param name="position" select="'left'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="gentext-key" select="$gentext-key"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</fo:block>
You can disregard my previous reply, then. Bob's solution is better :)

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 ...
