   Does anyone know of a source for a decent OCR-B font in Postscript (outline)
format?  I know Adobe is working on one, but we need it now (as opposed to
Real Soon Now), and we'd like to use it on a non-Adobe Postscript-compatible
interpreter (which shall remain nameless).  Any and all help would be greatly
appreciated.
