Hi Paul,

If you have the font name, try look at this site http://www.dafont.com/
They have some free fonts and all of them have both versions (Mac and
PC)

Ive got a mac, but I must admit that as far as I'm aware, you can;t
install afm or pfb
on a PC unless you have a font manager (which I'm not sure if it'd
install it in PCs anyway) I can't see
how you could install these fonts...
