I'm not sure why the fonts you mentioned blew up.  Are they all
mono-spaced?  I know Courier is.  Maybe that has something to do with
it.  Anyway, you can get soft copy of the AFM files from Adobe.  They
are available from their file server.  They also have some sample
programs and ducuments on line.  Most of the free Postscript
developer's kit is there, except for the case-study, I think.
Anyway, this is as good of a way as any to get AFM info.

Just send mail to: adobe!ps-file-server@decwrl.dec.com
and include the word "help" in the message.

Yow will get a message back with instructions for requesting index listings
and files.  There is also a section on proper file-server etiquette. (SP?)
