The UseFrontEnd function knows how to launch and use a "slave" front end that is only used for rendering services. In fact, you don't even need the call to InstallJava. The UseFrontEnd function will probably be pulled out of JLink` and into a startup package in the future. It was written to serve the needs of J/Link, but it really doesn't depend on Java.
