I've converted some .PBF fonts to gsf successfully
but I now need to convert them to a bdf format
acceptable to the SUN convertfont or makeafb font
utils. 
Q:
	How do I Do it ?
Q:
	Exactly what is a gsf FONT

My final destination is to move these fonts into the News 
Server.  What other probs might I encounter?


Additionally, Does Anyone Know of PD font programs
that can compose fonts from Interactive session or 
from some form of scaned images. Must be Unix & X.
