Has anyone altered dvipage, TeXtool, etc so that they can read the PK
format fonts for TeX. I know VorTeX has a previewer that reads these fonts
but they want $500 for a license. The PK fonts take up MUCH less disk
space than the old PXL fonts.  Any help appreciated.

[[ The GF fonts, however, are a good compromise.  They take up just a
little more room than PK, but are produced directly by Metafont and have a
much wider acceptance.  PXL is dead.  No one should be using PXL at all
anymore for anything.  --wnl ]]
