Re: [docbook-apps] Simple title page - would like to add a logo

natk’s suggestion was the correct one for what you want. Study the section of Bob Stayton’s DocBook book linked from natk’s note. Here’s the link again, as well as the follow-on section of Bob’s book about “Print title pages,” by which he effectively means PDF title page:

Sorry my terminology was probably confusing and wrong.
I am primarily creating an Eclipse Plugin Help file. The PDF is a spin-off from that.
I am actually creating a Manual - rather than a book and I want my manual's "front cover" to look something comparable to other product manuals - for example an IBM Manual where a logo/image is present and the title is a short way down from the top.
