Have you tried to use absolute URIs for either the <font-base> element or
the metrics-url attribute on the <font> elements? These methods work for me.
For example,
<font-base>file:///c:/Java/fop-0.93/conf/</font-base>
or
<font metrics-url="file:///C:/Java/fop-0.93/conf/gara.xml" kerning="yes"
embed-url="file:///C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/GARA.TTF">
<font-triplet name="Garamond" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
