I recently obtained a copy of Steve Wards DVIEW program for
previewing TeX dvi files.  This program works nicely on IBM
compatibles but it came with a limited supply of fonts.  Now, I do
not know a lot about bit mapped fonts but the program doc said that
any PXL font or TeX metafont will work and that these fonts are
readily available to be downloaded.  So far I have not found them
and I am wondering if its do to the fact that I don't really know
what to look for!!

I would appreciate any help in finding these fonts and a breif
explaination as to what it is I really need.

Steve's program is PD and can be found on Simtel.

Thanks for the help and send info to:
