Is anyone working on (or is there available) a postscript filter for dvi files
that is capable of generating fonts on the fly? I have a fast machine, limited
disk space, and sporadic use for certain fonts...

I recall discussion of this once upon a time, but I don't know if such a thing
ever existed.
