Brian,
	To install a PostScript font:

1)	Install the screen font in your system with the Font/DA Mover

2)	Put the printer font file in your system folder (the file will have a
	name like "HelvBolIta" for Helvetica-BoldItalic).

The AFM (Adobe Font Metric) file is not necessary in order to use the font; the
two steps above are all the Mac needs.  The AFM files contain information about
the font that is intended for application use, but I know of no applications
that actually use them (PageMaker, perhaps?).
