"Times-Roman" is clearly the base 14 font which seems to be triggered somewhere for some reason. On first sight (and with the information available) I'd say you did everything right. Have you tried to do the same on the command-line just for comparison? On the command-line you can also run the "-at out.at.xml" option (instead of "-pdf out.pdf") to generate the area tree XML file which could give you some indication where FOP doesn't use the TrueType font. Using SVG files inside the FO document could also be a source of the problem.
Another possibility is to add additional font-triplet elements to the font configuration to override the defaults: <font metrics-url="tnr.xml" kerning="yes" embed-url="Times_New_Roman.ttf"> <font-triplet name="Times New Roman" style="normal" weight="normal"/> <font-triplet name="Times" style="normal" weight="normal"/> <font-triplet name="serif" style="normal" weight="normal"/> <font-triplet name="any" style="normal" weight="normal"/> </font> BTW, if you use FOP 0.95 you don't need to do the TTFReader step and can skip the metrics-url attribute in the configuration.
