The Adobe fonts Courier, Helvetica, Times and Symbol are actually
distributed with Andrew in several sizes from 8-22 (only printable ASCII
though).  You might pick these up even if you can't afford to install
Andrew; look in a place like ./contrib/andrew/fonts.  The format they
use seems to be different again; it is similar in idea to BDF and the
Andrew distribution contains a compiler from this format to BDF.
