we have a xenotron typesetting system, which uses bitstream's outline
fonts.  i have written a dvi-to-xenotron program to drive it from tex
output.  i know it's possible to produce tfm files from bitstream fonts,
but what i would really like to do is use computer modern fonts on the
xenotron, for uniformity with our previewers and in order to typeset
maths.  so, does anyone know whether bitstream have produced outlines
(not bitmaps) for cm fonts, or whether they plan to do so?  my only
contacts with bitstream are indirect and tenuous, hence my appeal to
comp.fonts.
