   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. 

I don't know whether the following is what you are looking for, but it
may well be:

On rusinfo.rus.uni-stuttgart.de, in directory
soft/tex/fonts/postscript/cm there are PostScript definitions for the
Computer Modern fonts. These were copied from the Aston archive
[UK.AC.TEX].
