I also had problems applying pfd2tfm to Courier.afm and I found
that Courier has too much characters defined in the afm-file.
After removing four characters from the afm-file pfd2tfm
worked fine. The same problem appeared with the other Courier-
Fonts (Courier-Bold,...) and with all Letter-Gothic Fonts.
I am using the afm-files from ps-file-server@adobe.com and the
old version of dvi2ps from S. v. Bechtolsheim, but it may be the
same error in the newer version.
