OCR A Fonts for Solaris 8/Oracle Reports

OCR A Fonts for Solaris 8/Oracle Reports

Hello,

We need to install some printer fonts on Solaris 8 to be used by Oracle reports.
These fonts need to be PostScript Font ASCII (pfa). When we purchased our fonts,
we got files with the following extensions: .afm, .inf, .pfb, and .pfm.

We tried using several utilities to convert .pfb to .pfa such as pfbtopfa and
groff. When we install the fonts, we cannot see the fonts properly. Does Adobe
sell the OCR fonts with the .pfa or is there an Adobe created .pfb to .pfa
converter?

No to both your questions, I'm afraid.

Sorry!
