Yes, BMUG has an *AWESOME* set of fonts; many more than even me :-) !
I'm going to get some as soon as possible.  Their (1 inch thick!) catalog
of publically-distributable software and fonts give good indication of
the programs and the fonts.

No personal connection to BMUG other than as an *extremely* satisfied
customer...
