 Adobe's metric files are not provided except on the Adobe labelled font
packages. Apple simply provides bitmapped fonts. If you are looking for the
actual outline fonts you'll either have to get ATM/PlusPack or the appropriate
Adobe font package. However, as far as either metric or outline files are
concerned, Apple has never distributed either one with Macs.
