   that I got from cs.washington.edu don't have the magnified fonts
   that I need.
   I understand that Metafont can be used to build these larger font
   files.  I've looked around on several ftp servers and haven't
   been able to find Metafont.

   Does anybody out there know where I can get Metafont, or know of
   some other way to build the large fonts?

Metafont should be anywhere that TeX is; its certainly part of the
Unix TeX distribution. sun.soe.clarkson.edu should have everything you
need to get yourself a working Metafont.
