Is there a way to convert .TFM fonts into .PK240 fonts or to convert
.PK300 fonts to .PK240 fonts? I use a STAR NL-10 printer, which is
Epson-FX compatible, I have all the .TFM fonts TeX needs, but I don't
have all the .PK240 fonts DVIPrint needs, and many styles use some of 
these fonts ( for example, BRIEF.STY, used for Dutch letters, uses some
fonts which I don't have ). I have all the fonts .PK300, but the printer
doesn't use these fonts, if there is no way to convert .TFM fonts, can you
convert these to .PK240 fonts?

If there is no way to solve this problem, does anyone know where I can find
.FM fonts which I can use with MetaFont and how I can make .PK fonts with
MetaFont for my printer?

Please E-mail me the answers ( there are some holidays and after some time
unread articles disappear from the news, not from mail ), thanks a lot in
advance.
