Hi Dietrich, The FOP pdf images plugin works well for me when using FOP as an embedded library that runs inside an application server (JBoss). It only required to put the fop-pdf-images.jar in the classpath, no code changes. With big volumes (thousands of pages per output PDF), we have noticed that it takes time to open in Adobe Reader and to rip it on production printing servers. In the past few months, there was an interesting thread with technical information related to why this is happening. If you don't have big volumes, it is working really well.
