Just go to ftp.x.org or a closest mirror that have unpacked tree.
This directory contains both pfa (font) and afm (metrics) files:

             ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6.3/xc/fonts/scaled/Type1/

Most boring task will be writing of LCM file.  Get a chartable for
your codepage, the output from prfont.ps with glyph names in it and
maps/std.LCM to start with (it will save you from typing in ASCII) -
in half an hour you will have it.
