I would like to use the "Arial Unicode MS Font" as an embedded font using
FOP, but I found that the generated PDF file does not display text that is
bolded, despite the fact that the font-weight is set to bold in the FO file.
Since the same font displays bolded text correctly in a web browser, I'm
assuming that it does contains bold glyphs. What am I missing?

Your assumption is incorrect. Microsoft fonts generally do not have bold glyphs in them because their software (inc Word and IE) compute the bold glyphs on the fly. FOP does not attempt to do this. In order to get bold fonts working in FOP you will need to generate two sets of metrics for the same Font, and add two entries in your userconfig.xml.
