I'm currently working with a custom stylesheet I wrote from scratch (not DocBook) to generate FO from an XML document, and I'm using FOP v0.93. I've found that the image scaling does work. If I use the following FO:
<fo:external-graphic src="image.jpg" width="100px" content-width="scale-to-fit"/> then the image is scaled properly to the given width, and the proportions remain intact. I haven't looked at the FO produced by the DocBook stylesheets, so this doesn't necessarily answer the original poster's question, but FOP can do image scaling in this manner.

I have heard that fop is not so good at obeying the scaling commands. I can't remember where, though. On 4/26/07, T.G.
