Integrate fonts in java-application?

[Jonny Pony]

Hi,
I want to integrate some extra fonts into my java-application that creates 
pdf from xml/xsl-Files.

My Java so far (Creates a pdf from a StreamSource):
________________________________________________________
//Java
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStream;
//JAXP
import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
import javax.xml.transform.TransformerException;
import javax.xml.transform.Source;
import javax.xml.transform.Result;
import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
import javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXResult;
//FOP
import org.apache.fop.apps.Driver;
import org.apache.fop.apps.FOPException;
public class CreatePDFFile {
 public void convertXML2PDF(StreamSource xml, String xslFile, String 
filename) throws
     IOException,
     FOPException, TransformerException {

   Driver driver = new Driver();
   driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
   OutputStream out = new java.io.FileOutputStream(filename);
   out = new java.io.BufferedOutputStream(out);
   try {
     driver.setOutputStream(out);
     // Setup XSLT
     TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
     Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer(new 
javax.xml.transform.
         stream.StreamSource(xslFile));

     Result res = new SAXResult(driver.getContentHandler());
     transformer.transform(xml, res);
   }
   catch (Exception e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
   }
   finally {
     out.close();
   }
 }
}
________________________________________________________
Since I want some extra fonts in my pdf, I created some TrueType Font 
Metrics, with something like this code:
________________________________________________
java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\avalon-framework.jar;lib\xml-apis.jar;
        lib\xercesImpl.jar;lib\xalan.jar
          org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.TTFReader
            C:\myfonts\cmr10.ttf ttfcm.xml
_______________________________________________

I created a config-File "userconfig" with something ike this:
__________________________
...
<fonts>
<font metrics-file="arial.xml" kerning="yes" 
embed-file="file:///C:/Windows/Fonts/arial.ttf">
                <font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
               <font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" 
weight="normal"/>
</font>
<font metrics-file="arial-black.xml" kerning="yes" 
embed-file="file:///C:/Windows/Fonts/AriBlk.ttf">
	<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
	<font-triplet name="ArialBl" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
....
___________________________

Running fop from commandline works.
But I want this to work in an java application. Like in my java-code up 
there.
So how can I work with the config-file and font-XMLs and *.TTFs in my code?
(I don't want to have absolute paths, like 
"embed-file="file:///C:/Windows/Fonts/AriBlk.ttf" in my code)
Has anyone got sample code for this? Is there a tutorial?

Thanks
Jonny
