I'm working in our X11R2 environment for 386 UNIX boxes and I'd like to
create some new fonts.  Because we draw a 1660 x 1200 display on a 19"
monitor the existing fonts do not provide as wide a selection as I'd like
given the resultant 125x115 dpi density.

I feel a little dumb for not being able to find the answer by cruising 
through the literature, but for the life of me I can't figure out how
to create a new font.  Are there any good tools out there?

Does anyone know of more "large" fonts for X11?

Thank you in advance for help.
