Sandy,

I have worked out including graphics elements in my XML and transforming the whole thing to HTML, but I cannot work out what needs to happen in XSL/XS FO to make the graphic render in PDF.

Take a look at the FO element <fo:external-graphic/>. It's pretty straightforward; the syntax is analogous to HTML <img/> except of course (it being FO) you can do many more things with it. So in your case you'd just transform your <Source> element into the <fo:external-graphic/> assigning its value (text content) to the src attribute. Your <Title> and <Description> you'll probably want in appropriately-styled block elements near by.

Let us know if you need something more specific (and haven't already got it).

Cheers,
Wendell
