I am using FOP 2.2 and this still seem buggy.

When I test it I find the inconsistent behavior isolated to the bottom and 
right attributes. top and left seems to work as expected.

Br,

Daniel

I am inclined to accept this as a bug.

Reading the XSL 1.1 Rec - 7.6.1, absolute positioning is handled via 
top/bottom/left/right properties, specifying offsets with respect to the 
nearest ancestor reference area. A bit further down, in the restrictions for 
paged media, it is stated that the areas generated by absolute-positioned 
objects become descendants of the page, etc.

I would take that to mean that the offsets are with respect to the 
page-reference-area, not the region-reference-area, which seems to be what FOP 
is doing.
