ahhhh fo:region-body! yup that did the trick, thanks!
The code that I ended up using is:
<fo:region-body background-image="url(draft.svg)"
background-position-horizontal="center"
background-position-vertical="center"/>
and if anyone is curious, the Inkscape generated svg for the word
DRAFT I'm using to test is:
<svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.0" width="744.09448"
height="1052.3622" id="svg2">
