Font creation is kind of a science.  I'm really no expert but when I
spend some time in TeX and Metafont some years ago I've learned that
it needs some knowledge and skills to create good looking fonts which
look nice in every skaling and do not need a long time for rendering.

I wonder if we could share this problem with the TeX community.  Those
people might have the same problem.  Perhaps some Metafont to Truetype
converter might do the trick??? Just an idea.

Kind regards
