The standard TeX/LaTeX (document processing system) comes with a load of
fonts of various types, including Adobe Type 1. I guess you could just
pick some up from your local TeX archive. E.g. the UK TeX Archive is at:

        ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/ctan/tex-archive/fonts

This directory contains loads of fonts - not all are Adobe ones so I guess
you'll have to just search through for any .pfa/.pfb files. E.g. charter,
utopia etc. Happy hunting...

Martin.
