to create a java object in coldfusion, you need to instantiate it *AND*
call a valid constructor. Coldfusion "fakes" the constructor by
creating an "init" method that you can call. When you create the
object, you *SHOULD* already have access to its constants.. so this
should work, assuming you knew the classpath for BaseFont. Which I don't.
<!--- load object --->
<cfset bf = createObject("java","class.path.BaseFont")>
<!--- call constructor --->
<cfset bf.init(bf.HELVETICA, bf.CP1252, bf.NOT_EMBEDDED)>
