Matthew,
You will certainly need the pfb files if you want to view these fonts, though
TeX only needs the tfm files to compile; unless pdfeTeX or ConTeXt does
something particular for some esoteric applications with the afm files you
probably don't need them (I've certainly never had to use them to compile
anything).
Best wishes
