Currently I know of three commercial MS-DOS based PostScript interpretors: UltraScript,

Freedom of the Press and GoScript, and one from Project GNU,
GhostScript.  As I understand,
GhostScript 2.0 currently reads Adobe Type 1 fonts and ignores the font
hints.  Do any of
these commercial packages read Adobe Type 1 fonts?  How do they look?
