What affect are you expecting from metric files exactly? You shouldn't
need to use metric files with FOP trunk in all but a tiny number of use
cases (IIRC, TTC is the main use case where metric files must still be
used) In all other cases using metric files puts you at a disadvantage,
i.e. FOP will ignore AFM Files for Type1 Fonts.

I was going to ask for more details on the problem but looks like you've
provided further information in a separate thread.
