That's right.

Well, I just followed the instructions in mag-0009.pdf. I created my own 
\system_fonts folder to do the work, then manually generated the afm's per 
Hans' instructions. After generating all four afms I called upn TeXFont from 
within the same directory with the generated afm's.

In any case, I'm not sure that TeXFont generates the afm's, since it seems to 
be looking for them, or at least Hans' instructions do not use this method...

Yes, but that was created by the old TeXFont1.5.
