Actually, you can do it in Yap.  Load the outline file into Yap, then...

uh..... I'm not a postscript programmer and have forgotten the commands
off the top of my head.  I have them written down somewhere and will look
for them.  Basically you say "setfont", type some text, and then say
"showfont".  I'll look for hte commands, but if anyone can fill in the lines
it's much appreciated.
