progress?
Yes, you are right. Progress listener will probably be imlemented only in FOP 
1.0dev. And for a while logger is the only way.

Q2:
I'm using AWTRenderer to produce a preview image
before rendering to a pdf file, because I could not
find a good (and cheap) java pdf viewer. And both,
adobe pdf and jpedal, were not able to load and
display all pdf files correctly. Is there some
other solution to produce preview images?
Opening pdf in a browser?
 I'm not
very satisfied with the rendering quality of the
fonts when using AWTRenderer.
AWT Font-measuring/rendering was improved in cvs, see 
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14657.
