Hi Maxine, We preprocess the images with ImageMagick and put the preprocessed images into the PDF. I don't think there's another way nor will there ever be (in FOP). Maybe you can call a function during the transformation, but I'm no expert there.

I would like to be able to convert the images referenced in the FO file whatever the attributes. For example, if I have a PNG file referenced in an fo:external-graphic element, I would like to convert the image into JPEG format with a quality of 40% and limit the dimensions to 400x400. This is mostly to provide control on the size of the resulting PDF without having to change the FO file or the referenced images. Thanks a lot.

I use FOP 1.0 embedded in a java app. Thanks a lot for your help! Maxime Bégnis
