I changed the xsl to use your suggestion:
<fo:external-graphic src="file:{/data/Photo}"/>
but when I run it, it doesn't find the image file saying Image not
available. I confirmed the image is in the referenced location. any
ideas?

The actual image is 8" x 10" and I need to display it on the resulting
.pdf in a size of 3" x 3"
I am using the following to retrieve the file location and display the
image:
<xsl:element name="fo:external-graphic">
<xsl:attribute name="src">file:<xsl:value-of
select="/data/Photo"/></xsl:attribute>
</xsl:element>
I guess I have two questions.
2. Is the way I am retrieving/processing the image filename the
best/most efficient way to do so?
I would simply use a literal result element with e.g.
<fo:external-graphic src="file:{/data/Photo}"/>
of course making sure the xsl:stylesheet element binds the prefix 'fo' to
the XSL-FO namespace.
