Yes, I'm absolutely certain the parameters are properly applied. If they
were not then none of the images would get inserted into my PDFs as the
main parameter given is used, among other things, as a prefix for image
URIs.

As for mimic: As per the documentation, you must tell the IF renderer to
mimic a particular output format if you want the layout generated for
the IF to be appropriate for feeding back into fop to generate the final
format later. Otherwise, because different output formats have different
fonts with different font metrics, you'll get funky spacing issues in
your text. I guess it might be OK to go without if you don't intend to
feed the IF back into fop at all, but I'd still want to know which
format's metrics I was using.

What's your environment? Which version of fop are you using? (You should
always mention this sort of thing when asking any kind of question).
