Hi there.

Forgive me if this is a dumb schmuck question - I know very little about
postscript. What I would like to know is is there any software which can
convert Postscript fonts into TeX pk and tfm files, or (even better),
MetaFONT descriptions? There seem to be some interesting Posctscript fonts
around, and I'd like to use them in TeX.
