Try the public domain program ghostscript available for anonymous ftp from
prep.ai.mit.edu in  /pub/gnu.  Depending on your system you will need 
one of the files 

		FILES			SIZE

	ghostscript-2.1.1.tar.Z	   	 606899
		(source code for all systems)
	ghostscript-2.1fonts.tar.Z	1245001
		(fonts for all systems)
	ghostscript-2.1msdos.exe	 249582
		(executable for MS-DOS, rename to gs.exe when downloaded)
	ghostscript-2.1paintjet.tar.Z	  29679
		(source code for paintjet printer)

You must have an executable and the fonts.  The source in C includes makefiles 
for most systems.

Give it a try.
