Hello John
I use with FOP 0.20.3 the following:
<fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-before">
<fo:block-container position="absolute" top="4.5cm"
left="13cm" width="7.2cm" height="0.8cm">
<fo:block border-style="solid" border-color="red">I am
here</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
</fo:static-content>
It positions where I set it, relative to the xsl-region-before margins.
Hope this helps,
greetings,
Patrick.
