Ok, I see. It's the color profile again. FOP seems to have embedded the
overly big Sun sRGB color profile. This is weird since I've added code
that should explicitely use the much smaller profile that comes with FOP
(as happens in your Linux case). At least on my Windows machines, this
works perfectly. What I see, however, is that you use an ancient JRE on
Windows. Can you please check if the same problem appears with the
latest JRE 1.5 or 6?
