Has anyone converted the TeX fonts to work on a Xerox laser printer?
We're trying to get TeX working on our 9700 and I'm not satisfied with
some of the fonts at all (skinny W's, M's and N's).  I'm not looking
forward to examining each and every character in every font (128 chars
by >400 fonts) and fine tune them by hand.  Would this be easier if I had
the Metafont input files and a Metafont compiler?
