Is there any way to convert PostScript fonts to raster font files? I need some raster fonts for various (laser) printers, and it seems to me that, instead of buying several different fonts for different raster devices, I could buy one PostScript font and use a piece of software to have the font put into a bitmapped form of various sizes and resolutions. I know you can do this with TeX fonts (you can convert fonts to "Generic Font" format with MetaFont), and am wondering if the same capability is available in the PostScript world. -g frison (mail: frison@cs.arizona.edu)
