I know of a java pdf-viewer that is gpl www.jpedal.org I tested it some time ago. That viewer allows to load TT T1C T1 fonts that are shown in a awt-panel. Perhaps you find a solution in this source-code.
Shame it's GPL... and also slower (3 seconds per page compared to around 2 seconds per page for FOP.) I've tried a number of other libraries for convering PDF to TIFF, and as yet nothing has come close to Ghostscript which can do about 6 pages a second (and unfortunately Ghostscript is GPL too.)
PDFBox had great promise but it renders every word on the line at the start of the line, which is a real mess. :-D
To make matters worse all these companies which sell the PDF to TIFF conversion software have prohibitive per-computer licencing fees (most of them are above 10% of the cost of our own product) which seem to indicate that they are assuming we will be using the library in a server-based application (which we're not. :-/)
