How can I preview LaTeX documents which use PostScript fonts?

I am using dvipage for previewing dvi files and MC-TeX for printing
them on a PostScript printer. I just figured out how to get MC-TeX to
print files using PostScript fonts. However, when I try to preview
them, MC-TeX crashes -- apparently because it requires pkfonts for the
PostScript fonts.  These were not supplied with either the TeX or the
MC-TeX distribution.

Anybody out there have ideas as to how to create the pkfont files or
where I can get them?

Thanks in advance.
