I have a logo digitized at laserwriter resolution -- 300 dpi.

How do I make a laserwriter character out of this bitmap?
(My bitmap is 256 x 256)

It appears that the laserwriter fonts on the mac are stored
at screen resolution, since the actual fonts are stored inside
the laserwriter.
Can I make a downloadable font at the correct resolution?

Does anyone have instructions for doing this?
