Did you follow the link Vincent posted in Bugzilla? IIC, that explains exactly 
what the core issue is, and shows what needs to be done to work around it. 
Obviously, that would mean your FOP config is not portable across all 
platforms, but that seems justifiable.

Perhaps. PCF is a format used by Xserve, which is the reason why you have them 
installed. This does not necessarily mean that the Java AWT implementation has 
built-in support for PCF fonts, though...
