Greetings! I have read a few postings to the following effect: that when one sends a font to a printer, it devlops the information normally found in a .afm file for the font, and that one can write some code to capture this information to create the actual .afm file. This would seem to allow the complete conversion of many TeX fonts to postscript, for use in software supporting these fonts. Does anyone know how to capture this .afm information? Does anyone have some code to do this? What about the screen versions? *Many* thanks for any and all help here!
