The problem is the "UnknownEncoding" in the XML. FOP did not recognize the encoding and can't handle a font like that. I'm sure it can be made to work with some coding but right now, the only thing you can try is to replace "UnknownEncoding" with "StandardEncoding" and check if it works. Otherwise, you should check out http://barcode4j.sourceforge.net as an alternative.
