Are you able to render any PNG image in an absolutely-positioned 
block-container in a static region?  Your question could be an XSL-FO 
question of "how do I do any image" or it could be an application-specific 
"why doesn't transparent PNG work when I can display any other image using 
my software".  It was sufficiently vague to not know the true nature of the 
question.

Not everyone is using FOP so perhaps this is why there wasn't a big 
response for a tool-specific question.

If it is the first question "how do I do any image?" then what errors are 
you getting or undesirable result?

If it is the second question "why doesn't it work in FOP?" then you could 
ask a FOP-oriented list or wait for someone who knows FOP to answer.

Perhaps each person willing to volunteer an answer thought the question 
being asked was "the other question" they didn't know.
