Hello Magnus, have you tried this: <fo:external-graphic src="url(image.jpg)"/>
I found it somewhere in the internet.

Like so: <fo:external-graphic src="file:/abs/path/to/images/image.jpg"/> Also, there is an entry in Fop's config.xml where you can set the basedir but the comment says 'not implemented'. If, and when this entry gets supported, that should be the place where you specify the basedir, enabling relative file paths. ///Magnus Klosa Uwe wrote: > > It works only with fop0_19_0.
