It's intentionally difficult. It *is* possible to generate a key to match a given key ID, or even match a given key fingerprint - however, the resulting key will have odd values for key length (for instance, it may be a 25-bit DSA key or 1,343,342 bit RSA or other wild stuff). http://www.pgp.net/pgpnet/pgp-faq/pgp-faq-keys.html#key-public-key-forgery The tricky part will be getting the person to accept that the key is from who it purports to be - this will probably involve some social engineering, especially if the target already *has* a trusted key from the person you're trying to forge.
