Hi DJ, In order to use any image as page background (either with fo:external-graphic or fo:instream-foreign-object), you can insert it directly in a static region, using a block-container in absolute position.
With FOP 0.9x, the body region is drawn at the top level, therefore static-regions can be used as background for body region. By setting your background in the start-region, the (0,0) is the top left corner of your sheet, minus fo:simple-page-master margins. In other regions, you can use negative coordinates to put your image else where, depending on extent properties.
