If he wants to make bitmap fonts, there is a font editor in the
Programmer's toolkit/2.  It he wants to make ATM fonts, he'll need a
development kit from Adobe.  Adobe's kit will contain the necessary
information/programs to create Type-1 fonts and metrics, including the
.AFM metrics that OS/2 uses.
