Borders around images

Hello

First of all: I am using FOP-0.20.4 under jdk1.4.1. 

I want to draw borders around some images. Have tried some ways but it doesn't just seems to be any borders in the rendered result. The ways I've tried is:
- <fo:external-graphic src="somesrc.png" border-width=".1mm" border-style="solid" border-color="#444444"/>  

- <fo:inline border-width=".1mm" border-style="solid" border-color="#444444"><fo:external-graphic src="somesrc.png"/></fo:inline>

- <fo:block border-width=".1mm" border-style="solid" border-color="#444444"><fo:external-graphic src="somesrc.png"/></fo:block> (This way a border is rendered but it doesn't get rendered tightly around the image)

So, how do I render a border tightly around an image?

Thanks in advance

/Marcus

You can't. There appears to be a combo of bugs preventing this.
Until now nobody gathered enough persistence, cluefulness and
karma to track them down (you are invited).

The usual workaround is to make the border a part of the image.

It almost worked. The result now is that the border-top and border-bottom is rendered 1-2px above and below the image and it looks like the left and right borders are drawn as well but under the image (just 1px in). Strange...

try adding margin="0pt" to fo:external-graphic and/or padding="0pt" to
fo:block. That might work.
