Maybe there are some utilities that can translate your Type3 fonts to TrueType or Type 1 to use them in FOP. The other possibility, if you know Java, is to read the specs and add support for it yourself. We would be happy to include code for this in FOP. Tore Engvig has once started code for Type 3 but that's obviously not finished. Have a look at org.apache.fop.pdf.PDFFontType3.java as a starting point. Cheers, Jeremias Märki
