Subject: Can I get .tfm or .afm files for Bitstream fonts?

Trying to make dvips work with a combination of an HP IIP and a Pacific
Page P*E, I notice that the font tables supplied with dvips don't
exactly match the letterspacing for some of the built-in
Postscript-clone typefonts.

Is it possible to get proper font-width files to go with the Bitstream
fonts included on the Pacific Page cartridge? TeX and dvips use .tfm
files, but dvips comes with a utility to convert .afm files, whatever
they are.

Can anyone offer any suggestions? Thanks.
