Why do you think so? Have a look at the specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo_external-graphic and you'll see that this works. There are examples in examples/fo/basic/images.fo which demonstrate all the different property combinations. scale-to-fit causes the image to be scaled so it fits into the viewport box defined by the width and height properties.

Re: Re how to embed a font programatically
I haven't done this from outside FOP, yet, but I can give you a suggestion that I'd prefer in your case: Write a URIResolver implementation that returns StreamSource instances for specific URIs. You can take FOURIResolver as an example for how to do that. You can then set the URIResolver instance on the FOUserAgent using setURIResolver(). This allows you to specify the font URLs like this: servlet-context:/WEB-INF/metric.xml In your URIResolver you simply check if the URI starts with servlet-context: and extract the path. You then simply construct a StreamSource giving it the InputStream returned by getResourceAsStream (). If a URI doesn't start with the above prefix just return null and the default URIResolver will kick in. The clue about all this is that you have to do less FOP-hacking and instead use the normal configuration mechanism. It should only take 30 minutes to hack. I hope that helps.

Re: JBoss 4 vs FOP commons logging clash - solved
Thanks for the direction and the JCL wiki. It helped in debugging what was going on. OK, I have made some progress and have gotten them to work together.

It exists in the root lib directory and the server's lib directory has the additional log4j.jar. I have not tried any different ordering, but at least this gets it to boot and I can now render PDFs under 0.91. I can probably move the commons and log4j jars before the tools.jar, but I have not had a chance to experiment with it. I'm not saying that this is the best solution, but it seems to be a solution.
