The Subject says it all. I have a AST TurboLaser/PS-Plus 3 which uses the
Ricoh write-white engine. I already have the Ricoh RK fonts from the
Clarkson archive, but these print out too light (or thin, I am not sure.)
Anyway, I desperately need PK fonts for this printer. I have Metafont but
I am a total neophyte regarding Metafont. If you don't have the PK fonts I
need do you know the mode_defs I need? Could you tell me how to generate the
proper fonts using Metatfont?

Could you tell me how to generate the >proper fonts using Metatfont? There's an excellent quick summary to running Metafont in Liam R. E. Quin's posting Definitive list of all fonts available for Metafont. There should also be some documentation with the MF sources (not prominently located I know). There are makefiles and scripts for generating the whole set of fonts. I'm sure that there are other sources of info out there. Maybe some of these should go into the FAQ answers?
