I'm wondering that myself. I tested loading in images when I first
started using it and had some issues with the path reference to get FOP
to find the image file. I haven't gotten back to it. That's on my to
do list.
My workaround was to load my image into a program which saved it as SVG
draw commands and I put it directly into my XSL.
Of course this means I can only use one image but that's all I needed
for now.
To load in custom fonts embedded in the jar I did this.
TTFFontLoader myTTFLoader;
MultiByteFont myCustomFont;
ArrayList<FontTriplet> myFontTriplets;
Object[] myFontFamilyNames;
String familyName;
String loadFontPath;
String loadFontFileName;
EmbedFontInfo myEmbedFontInfo;
FOUserAgent myUserAgent = createFOUserAgent();
InputStream is;
String fontFileURI;
AbstractRendererMaker myAbstractRendererMaker;
PDFRenderer myPDFRenderer;
RendererFactory myRendererFactory;
// Load Normal Font
loadFontPath = "/resources/";
loadFontFileName = "LTYPE.TTF";
is = getClass().getResourceAsStream(loadFontPath + loadFontFileName);
fontFileURI = DataURLUtil.createDataURL(is, null);
myTTFLoader = new TTFFontLoader(fontFileURI, new
DefaultFontResolver(myUserAgent));
myCustomFont = (MultiByteFont)myTTFLoader.getFont();
myFontTriplets = new ArrayList<FontTriplet>();
myFontFamilyNames = myCustomFont.getFamilyNames().toArray();
if (myFontFamilyNames.length < 1) {
System.err.println("WARNING: Font " + loadFontPath +
loadFontFileName + " Cannot Find Font Families");
} else if (myFontFamilyNames.length > 1) {
System.err.println("WARNING: Font " + loadFontPath +
loadFontFileName + " Contains Multiple Font Families");
} else {
familyName = (String) (myFontFamilyNames[0]);
myNormalFont = new FontTriplet(familyName, Font.STYLE_NORMAL,
myCustomFont.getWeight());
myFontTriplets.add(myNormalFont);
}
myEmbedFontInfo = new EmbedFontInfo(null,
myCustomFont.isKerningEnabled(), myFontTriplets, fontFileURI, "");
myFontList.add(myEmbedFontInfo);
is.close();
// Setup custom renderer
myRendererFactory = myUserAgent.getRendererFactory();
myAbstractRendererMaker =
myRendererFactory.getRendererMaker(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF);
myPDFRenderer = (PDFRenderer)
(myAbstractRendererMaker.makeRenderer(myUserAgent));
myPDFRenderer.setUserAgent(myUserAgent);
myPDFRenderer.setFontList(myFontList);
myPDFRenderer.setupFontInfo(new FontInfo());
myUserAgent.setRendererOverride(myPDFRenderer);

Subject: RE: FOP with embedded font running in Oracle 10g
Ok,
it sound great. Could you notice any example please?
I have also another question - is there any way how to register images
stored inside java archive? And then how to specify path in FO element
<fo:external-graphic src="url('...path...')"/> ?
Small example would be very useful...
Thank you
Jiri
If you're using embedded code doing your own transform with all custom
fonts you can use FOP's FontLoader classes to manually load your own
fonts into the renderer. It's a bit more complicated but it should run
faster than trying to find the font on the path.

Ooh didn't know about that. Shows I'm still very new to FOP and learning
all the while... This sounds much better than my idea to
programmatically extract the font to a temporary location which may be
disregarded...
Thanks.
