Ah, you wanted to use a relative path on the font base setting, not on
the individual paths. Shouldn't really be a problem as long as you know
where your "current directory" is (new File(".").getCanonicalPath()).
But if you know the absolute base directory, it's better set that.
Something like...
FopFactory fopFactory = ....
fopFactory.setFontBaseURL("file:///C:/something/fonts");
...should do the trick.
