The documentation of dvips (5.493, for example) mentiones a program
called vptovf to convert the .vpl files generated by afm2tfm into .vf
files. However, this program is not in the dvips distribution.

Where can I find the vptovf program? 

My PS cartridge has some more fonts than there are tfm's included with
dvips and I want to create them and .vf's from .afm's.
