Batik gets a list of all fonts on the machine and creates a number of
different mapping combinations with the names.
FOP's font setup has only one mapping for that sans-serif.
Batik when it gets this type of font defaults to using the string sanserif.

It is simply a matter of how the fonts are named and it does not depend on
what fonts java can get.
