Forget PFMReader! It's not needed anymore in most cases and is just kept for backwards compatibilities and emergencies. You also won't need an AFMReader. Since FOP 0.94 the XML font metrics files are not needed anymore in 99% of the cases. Just ignore everything on the fonts page below the section header "Advanced font configuration".
