Hi Lars,
The task template apparently applies the attribute-set named
'formal.object.properties' to task, and that attribute-set has a
keep-together.within-column="always" attribute. With your three tall images
that prevent the task from fitting on one page, FOP fails to handle such a
large keep.
The solution for this task is to add a processing instruction:
<task>
<?dbfo keep-together="auto"?>
If you want to globally turn off the keep for all tasks, then your
customization layer should have:
<xsl:attribute-set name="formal.object.properties">
<xsl:attribute name="keep-together.within-column">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="self::task">auto</xsl:when>
<xsl:othewise>always</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>
Personally I think task should have its own attribute-set to make such
customizations easier for tasks.

Subject: [docbook-apps] imageobject in task leads to strange result in pdf
Hello,
I'm trying to utilize the <task> element. But if I add imageobjects the pdf
result looks broken.
The example document I use is listed below and the rendering result is
attached.
Any advice what I'm doing wrong? The input document validates in Eclipse.
Best regards, Lars
