Does anyone know of any PS definitions of computer modern fonts 
that could be used as Mac downloadable laserwriter fonts - thus
allowing Mac word processors to use these fonts. The dvips font
stuff (PK fonts) are just bitmaps and are not suitable. I know how
to get the screen fonts for the mac, I just need the laser 
downloadable stuff if it exists. NB: just a PS definition will do,
as I know how to build a LWFN file from that. Perhaps a conversion
of the metafont .mf files expanded into a PS style font dictionary 
would do the trick.
