    Does anyone know of a conversion program that will accept
    downloadable postscript fonts as input and produce TeX
    .gf or .pk fonts as output, together with the .tfm metric files?

    I have some (variant?) compugraphic outline fonts with a utility
    to produce downloadable postscript versions, and I'd like to be
    able to use the fonts with TeX and a non-postscript printer.

    Amiga software ideal, IBM PC ok, or details of the format of
    downloadable postscript fonts so I can try and roll my own..

    Any help or pointers gratefully recieved.

    Jerry   jc@cel.co.uk  or maybe jc@crosfield.co.uk
