There are no semantics in XSL-FO to express the file size, file type, or any meta data about the image being dereferenced by the external pointer.


What I've seen people do is manage image meta data with the image itself and supply the meta data to the transformation process. Then from XSLT when you obtain the image information from the XML instance describing images, such meta data would also be available.

I hope this helps.
