Hi Christoph, If I'm understanding correctly, this issue is caused by FOP taking into consideration line spacing even when there's no text. Try setting the parent block to have font-size="0" and that should resolve the problem.
If that doesn't resolve it or do what you want it to, it might be best to post a sample FO file to show the problem and I'll take another look.

The highest image within a row should define the height of the row. All other images are centered vertically. The table-cells get a background-color, so when an image's height is less than the height of the highest image of its row, one should see the background-color above and below that image. But I've noticed the background-color above and below the highest image, too. Especially in rows with just images of definitely same size (where the background-color never should appear) I can see a padding to the top and a larger padding to the bottom. So I made a simple test without a table: The result is: <http://apache-fop.1065347.n5.nabble.com/file/n39020/screen.png> Altough *padding*, *margin* (and some other properties I tried to fix this) are set to *0* for the *block* and the *external-graphic* there is still some space above and below the image. The result I expected would be something like this: <http://apache-fop.1065347.n5.nabble.com/file/n39020/nominal.png> What properties can I add to eliminate that (cyan) space above and below the image?
