yeah no luck at all. i get the same error as the first try

i typed: java -cp {fullpaths to all .jar files}
org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader {fullpath to pfm file} newfont.xml

returned: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/avalon/framework/logger/AbstractLogEnabled        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass0(Native Method)

i should be able to type : java org.apache.fop.fonts.apps.PFMReader 
to know if the PFMReader is working... correct?

also tells me 
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]           (to execute a class)   or  java -jar [-options] jarfile [args...]           (to execute a jar file)
where exactly is the PFMReader? i should be able to access it with 

thanks again
ryan
