This is absolutely true! The absolute path is necessary to get the image to work (at least that's how I work with it).

I think that you have to provide the absolute path of the file.

Subject: Image problem

Hi all,
    I'm triying to insert an image into a document.
 
I have the following code:
 
<fo:block>
    <fo:external-graphic height="48px" width="131px" src="file:theImage.gif"/>
</fo:block>
 
and I get the following error:
 
"Error while creating area : Invalid Image URL - error on relative URL : no protocol: theImage.gif"
 
What am I doing wrong ?
 
Thanks in advance,
    Pablo.-
 
PS: the image file is placed in the same fop file directory.
