On the above web link, you can find names like

  Impossible - 0 minus 30
  Impossible
  Impossible - 0 plus 30

which exactly shows what those fonts are, namely instances extracted
from the original MM fonts (using the axis values -30, 0, and 30,
respectively) then converted to TTF.  Those fonts are *not* MM fonts
any more.

A program to extract MM instances is `mmpfb', to name an example,
available from
