Thanks so much to all of you who responded with such extreme rapidity
to my query!  I am now abundantly aware of the fact that the tfm files
contain no shape information. :-)  

The consensus seems to have been to go ahead, knuckle under and install
dvips and ghostscript on my machine.  As my current box has under 2mb
of free space left, I'll have to wait a couple weeks for my new Mod 70
to arrive.  I'll let y'all know how things turn out.

Again, thanks for the advice and instruction!
