btw, have you tried using the <directory/> element without the <auto-detect/> element? e.g.

<fonts>
  <directory>./fonts-to-reference-without-embedding</directory>
</fonts>

this allows you to restrict the set of fonts to be accessed for reference only (non-embedded) use

I notice at [1] that editable embedding is allowed. Note that FOP does not embed the entire font, but only those glyphs used in the document. I would be surprised if you were subject to redistribution licensing costs given this situation.

Hi Glenn,

I don't want to embed the fonts to avoid significant font redistribution licensing costs.

The produced PDFs will be distributed to people having the fonts installed on their machine. 

Thanks for your help
