You might want to look into VarahCaps, a shareware font by the prolific
David Rakowski (his "Read Me" files alone are worth a look :-).
It should be available for anonymous FTP on um-mts.cc.umich.edu,
directory pc2, file fo/varahcap (this is not a Unix site).

(I got this information from the shareware font collection for the NeXT on
sonata.cc.purdue.edu.  I don't know how up to date it is, but many fonts in
that collection were converted from Mac fonts from that site.)
