Is somebody having a simple program (to be used on UNIX) to download
Adobe fonts to a PostScript printer?
I've got a nice (?? :-) MS-Dos diskette with an MS-Dos application,
but I want that application run on UNIX.

We already traced the PC-to-printer channel, and I assume I can find
out how it is done (most of the font file is sent in hex, some parts
are sent as-they-are), but it's always easier to get a ready-to-use
program.
