Re: [docbook-apps] Using FOP with figures

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

Hi,
The error about 'xsl-region-body' can be fixed by setting the
fop.extensions parameter to 1.  I don't think that is the reason
your images are now showing up, though.  Carlos mentioned
the Jimi classes for handling graphics, but those have been
superceded by the JAI classes.  See the step "Download
the graphics library files" in this reference:
