I once drew screen fonts (8x8, 8x14, 8x16) for ISO 8859-5, which includes
Serbian characters (that for MS-DOS; you're not saying what machine your
crazy friend is using; I'm hope he's not crazy enough to use a Mac:).  I am
not aware of any PS, but if your friend can use TeX, there are METAFONT
fonts called WNCYR that include Serbian.

You can get them from MAILSERV@YMIR.CLAREMONT.EDU or from
LISTSERV@UBVM.CC.BUFFALO.EDU.
I'm not quite sure about YMIR's nomenclature; for listserv, send it mail:
GET DOSGOST UUEARC
GET DOSGOSTS UUEARC
GET WNCYR PACKAGE
