I believe the path entry has to be a full path. I did notice when the
font manager is created it looks for embedded fonts with the following
function:
protected String getEmbededFontPath( )
{
Bundle bundle = Platform
.getBundle( "org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.fonts" ); //$NON-NLS-1$
if ( bundle == null )
{
return null;
}
Path path = new Path( "/fonts" ); //$NON-NLS-1$
URL fileURL = FileLocator.find( bundle, path, null );
..
..
May be worth trying creating a bundle to hold a fonts directory with
fonts. In the designer the plugin is already there.

BIRT 3.7.2 has both an OSGi and POJO runtime. If you are using the POJO
runtime the fontsconfig is jarred up in the
org.eclipse.birt.runtime_version.jar. If you use the OSGi runtime you
will have the plugins and configuration directories. POJO runtime is
the default and recommended runtime. Take a look at this bugzilla entry:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=347431

I am not certain why the system property is not working but I have added
a comment to the bugzilla entry for this.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=347431
Have you tried this?
EngineConfig.setFontConfig(URL)
The URL should point to a file that has similar format to existing
fontsConfig.xml file.
If you want to use the OSGi runtime remove all of the POJO runtime and
download the OSGi runtime for your version. I believe this was first
made available in 3.7.2
http://birtworld.blogspot.com/2012/03/birt-372-new-features.html
Once you download it only include the libs in the reportengine/lib
directory in your classpath. Look at this wiki page:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Servlet_Example_%28BIRT%29_2.1
While it has older versions the setup is pretty much the same if you are
going to use an OSGi runtime.

If you are using the osgi runtime all the required jars for it should be
in the runtime/reportengine/lib directory.
