Unable to include Arial font in FOPTransformer

I am working on an application which has some forms and then using FOP it creates pdf files. PDF files that are getting generated are in Time New Roman but I want them in Arial font. I added arial.ttf in projectName->fonts->arial.ttf as described here:http://www.publicstaticfinal.de/2011/01/26

I succeeded in doing this a while ago. Looking through your fopcfg.xml what differs from mine is that you seem to specify postscript as output format, my renderer element look like this (notice the mime-type application/pdf):


    <renderer mime="application/pdf">
      <filterList>
        <!– provides compression using zlib flate (default is on) –>
        <value>flate</value>
  
        <!– encodes binary data into printable ascii characters (default off)
             This provides about a 4:5 expansion of data size –>
        <!– <value>ascii-85</value> –>
  
        <!– encodes binary data with hex representation (default off)
             This filter is not recommended as it doubles the data size –>
        <!– <value>ascii-hex</value> –>
      </filterList>

      <fonts>
       <font kerning="yes" 
               embed-url="fonts/helv_lt_77_bold_cond.ttf">
          <font-triplet name="HelveticaNeueLT57Cn" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
         </font>
         <font kerning="yes" 
               embed-url="fonts/helv_lt_47_light_cond.ttf">
          <font-triplet name="HelveticaNeueLT47LightCn" style="normal" weight="200"/>
        </font>
    
      </fonts>

      <!– This option lets you specify additional options on an XML handler –>
      <!–xml-handler namespace="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
        <stroke-text>false</stroke-text>
      </xml-handler–>

    </renderer>
