Re: [docbook-apps] Header out of alignment - space before graphic

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Hi Paul,
There are some property problems in the table content:

display-align="bottom"
text-align="bottom"

but I don't think those are the problem.  You might try adding a background 
color to the table cell, and add borders around the cell, block, and 
external-graphic to see what is contributing the space.
