I wrote a font utility afm2pl for conversion of afm to pl/tfm. It is
derived from afm2tfm, but preserves kerns and ligatures without the
need for devious detours or virtual fonts. For text fonts, it is best
used with texnansi encoding. I hope some of you are willing to try it
out.

You can find it at http://www.ntg.nl/afm2pl.html.
