Does fop do the whole job? It's possible to use xsltproc to prepare the .fo file, which should then be easily processible by fop I guess. xsltproc knows a --path switch. I usually use: VPATH =+ $(srcdir) rule: xsltproc --path "$(VPATH)" ... to catch all files in $(builddir) and $(srcdir). A different way would be to define the path to images via parameter and then set this parameter on xsltproc/fop call. For the first mentioned: xsltproc --stringparam image.path "$(srcdir)" This is how docbook-xsl works (to include the pictures for warnings, notes, ...). There is IMHO no need to copy the files around.
