Derrick,
Thanks for your info. I am quite new to XSL. So, just bear with
me. You use the element <xsl:text> to refer to an external
image. I do not know exactly how it works. Would you please tell
me how to refer to an external image using the following snip
codes given the image watermark_draft.gif which is stored int
the directory "C:/image/" ?
thanks,
Dave

<fo:region-body margin-top="1cm" margin-bottom="1cm">
<xsl:attribute name="background-image">
<xsl:text>watermark_draft.gif</xsl:text>
</xsl:attribute>
</fo:region-body>
</fo:simple-page-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
