I am new to xsl and want to display an image in a pdf file. I am using

Nothing happens. What could be the problem?
A couple of things jump out at me, first you are not using the correct
syntax for the src= attribute (though some processors ignore the
requirement to use the correct syntax); second the URL syntax for the
local file system doesn't look correct either.
There are a number of variations of syntax for src= and I tell my
students that the most reliable to use is:
src='url(" ..url.. ")'
Reviewing the syntax for URLs, single quotes are allowed while double
quotes are not, thus the syntax above means that a transformation
involving a valid URL entered by a user will not inadvertently create
improperly-quoted strings.
If the filename is c:\logo.jpg, then I belive the correct URL syntax for
this is:
file:///c:/logo.jpg
So, try:
<fo:external-graphic src='url("file:///c:/logo.jpg" height="3cm"
width="3cm"/>
I hope this helps.
