It is possible, and sounds a bit like a thread from about 2-3 months ago... How is your Java? At that time it was suggested that we change our org.apache.fop.image.GifImage class, namely the loadImage() method, right after opening the first try-block: Replace this: ImageProducer ip = (ImageProducer)this.m_href.getContent(); by this: Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(); Image image = toolkit.getImage(m_href); ImageProducer ip = image.getSource(); As I said to the OP at that time, the suggestion sounded good although I wasn't too sure whether there were other issues involved. Right now it still hasn't found its way into the sources, I'm afraid. Hope this helps! Cheers, Andreas
