Any input in this...

You dont actually state what your problem is. It isnt mandatory to specify width and height on external-graphic. However, without width and height specified FOP outputs the image at 72dpi. I guess your problem is the quality of the image is very poor.


There isnt a workaround in general.

The workaround for me (with regard to the 72dpi image problem) has been to create a JPG with a resolution of 300dpi (note: large file size), and then scale the image down if necessary. This produces high resolution logos for placement in our FOP-rendered pages without pixelation.


Probably the most important thing to remember about adding external-graphics to FOP-rendered pages is this:

IIRC, FOP has a bug in it causing it to go into an infinite loop, if the graphic is too large to fit on a page.

Good luck!
