Note that starting from FOP 0.95 (and unofficially from FOP 0.94) this is no longer required to generate XML metrics files for fonts. You can rely on the font discovery mechanism described in the section “Basic font configuration” at the following link: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/fonts.html#basics and that should be just it.
