For Type 1 fonts, there are at least two possibilities:

Adobe Font Foundry, a DOS program that used to come with all Adobe
font packages. According to the Adobe Web site a few months ago, 
Adobe is still willing to take  money for it but will no longer
provide "support". It isn't difficult to use, so it shouldn't need a
lot of support.

ZSoft SoftType, a Windows 2.x program.

Neither of these can read TrueType.
