Can anyone show how to script the above conversion?

The output should at least have the first 256 glyps, but converting to
multiple Types 1 or an acceptable PostScript Level 2 or 3 advanced type is
better (as long it can be represented in a PS printer-acceptable text file).

I have had success creating Type 1 .pfa files using the widget interface,
but would prefer scripting.

Thanks,

-Tom
