This is a bug. The base is ignored when reading font information.

I've got my own servlet with FOP which reads a fopconfig.xml file that I deploy with the servlet. So far, so good.
However, when I added fonts to fopconfig.xml, I had a bunch of problems until I hardcoded the path to the font under my servlet. Obviously, this is a problem because my servlet (supposedly) can be deployed anywhere and I need to use a relative path for the font files.
I set the baseDir beforehand, but that doesn't seem to help.
This works:
<font metrics-file="C:\tomcat\webapps\reportserver\Conf\arial.xml" kerning="yes" embed-file="C:\tomcat\webapps\reportserver\Conf\arial.ttf">
This doesn't:
<font metrics-file="Conf/arial.xml" kerning="yes" embed-file="Conf/arial.ttf">
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
Thanks for any help, Scott
