We found the same thing. We also found that images with ICC Profiles display correctly in FOP 0.20.2, but appear as black boxes in FOP 0.20.3 and 0.20.4.
Anyone know what happened between .2 and .3 that would break this? Is there a way to strip out the ICC Profile of an image at runtime? Our users are not terribly technical, asking them to not upload images with ICC Profiles may be a little too much for them.

I've found if you remove the option for "ICC Profile:" in the "Save As" dialog the image will render properly in the PDF. I assume this option adds some data to the jpg resulting in the display problem not only with FOP and PDFs but I've had problems in the past with other applications as well.

When i convert it with ACDSee (for example), the problem is resolved. But I don't know, where's the problem in FOP+Photoshop JPGs.

The size of the image is correct. However, this only occurs if you are using 16 bit color or higher. If you lower the color res down to 256 colors, then images always show up in the pdf in acrobat reader. Client is Win2000, Acrobat Reader 5, Fop server process is running on red hat linux 7.2 server, fop 2.0.3. I think this behavior only started happening in FOP 2.0.3, but I'm not totally sure about this. I can't figure out if it is an acrobat or fop thing. Is this a known issue with FOP? Anyone found a work-around for this?
