I know several possible sources, (none guaranteed):

	Dr John E. Howland,
	Computer Science Dept.
	Trinity University
	San Antonio, Texas 78284

	Eugene E. MacDonald,
	I.P.Sharp Associates
	Palo Alto, Calif

	Prof. A. Hohti
	Math Dept
	U. Helsinki
	Hallituskatu 15
	SF-00100 HELSINKI, Finland

Someone within Xerox has developed such a font, and it is beautiful, 
(according to one with a critical eye for fonts in general and APL
in particular).  But the head of department that owns this font will
not share it, even for internal use within the company!
