Not without an exhorbant fee.  However, the Hershey fonts might help,
tough to get good hi-resolution though. There is a german company that
has a scalable font technologi called ikarus.  Bit stream might be your
best bet, as they have a PC based outline font package that allows
the creation of bitmapped fonts in arbitrary sizes for the HPlaserjet.
