The only ways I know to do it are via commercial products.  The first using 
Adobe Type Manager, and the other way is to use FontSizer.  It will make a 
bitmap from resident outlines in a PS laserprinter in sizes up to 96pt.

FontSizer is by Specialy Software Developmenet, 110 Wild Basin Road, Suite 270,
Austin, Texas 78746.  (512) 327-8608.
