TeXtrace is a collection of scripts for UNIX that convert any TeX font into a Type1 .pfb outline font immediately suitable for use with dvips, pdftex, acroread (and any many other programs). The main advantage of using Type1 fonts with TeX is that acroread renders TeX's bitmap fonts ugly on screen, but it renders outline fonts beutifully and fast.
