We use Fop on a workstation to design and view pdf document (after Fop transform)
After that, documents are rendered on a production server.
Sometimes, the production server don’t contain fonts necessary for theses documents and Fop subtitute missing fonts.
Maybe SubstituteFonts true/false propertie in fop config would be useful to failed the fo2pdf transformation instead subtitute font ?

Robert Meyer said :
After reading the documentation and looking in the code, it would appear as you say that there is currently no facility to provide the option to fail if a font is not present.
I would therefore recommend you log a new Fop issue on bugzilla [1] so that should someone have time in the future, they can implement it.
