Hi Bill,

Yes, FOP 0.95 tries to do a better job, but if you look at the details:

http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/graphics.html#png
-------8<-------
PNG

PNG images are supported through an Image I/O codec. Transparency is supported 
but not guaranteed to work with every output format.
-------8<-------

And that means:

-------8<-------
Image I/O

The image loading framework in XML Graphics Commons provides a wrapper to load 
images through the JDK's Image I/O API (JSR 015). Image I/O allows to 
dynamically add additional image codecs. An example of such an add-on library 
are the JAI Image I/O Tools available from Sun.
-------8<-------

So you still need JAI or jimi to do the actual work. Without it, no graphics in 
your PDF's

Thanks,
Jaap
