On an old version of FOP there were messages in the Java Console stating it 
couldn't find the glyph.  Now it just prints a #, no messages, not sure what 
I'm missing.
 
I don't normally see the .fo but I did figure out how to generate one by 
passing a StreamResult (created with a File) to the transform instead of the 
normal SAXResult (created with the FOP handler).
