Does anyone have programs to convert .pxl or .pk fonts to .gf format?

I'm interested because I'd like to create HP Laserjet fonts from some
of the TeX fonts.  X11.R3 includes tools to convert

gf -> bdf -> vfont

and Henry Spencer has a vfont to HP program.  The problem is that I have
.pk TeX fonts.

Any information on a more direct method would also be appreciated.
