Oh, now that you mention it, I recall that Freetype does not do the 
rendering - I suppose that's down to Pango and others. 

So, I take it you would advise that the corresponding metric files should be 
in the same folder as the glyph files?

Am I right to assume the links are:
PFB --> PFM
and
PFA --> AFM

What other types should I be supporting if I want to say Fonty Python has 
Type1 support?
