Apologies, code should have been: <fo:table> <fo:table-column column-width="3cm"/> <fo:table-column column-width="17cm"/> <fo:table-body> <fo:table-row> <fo:table-cell> <fo:table table-omit-header-at-break="false"> <fo:table-column column-width="3cm"/> <fo:table-header> <fo:table-row> <fo:table-cell> <fo:block> <!-- Your image here --> </fo:block> </fo:table-cell> </fo:table-row> </fo:table> </fo:table-cell> <fo:table-cell> <fo:table-column column-width="17cm"/> <fo:table-header> <fo:table-row> <fo:table-cell> <!-- Your current table (text only) --> <fo:table table-omit-header-at-break="false"> ... </fo:table> </fo:table-cell> </fo:table-row> </fo:table> </fo:table-cell> </fo:table-row> </fo:table-body> </fo:table>
