I am working my final year project with Nick Bailey and want to use the Lilypond 
fonts with in the score editor.  We want to create the fonts when they are 
needed using the metafont source.  

I have coded a pk font reader and am in the process of converting the raster 
description into an image. 

My problem is that I was trying to create the fonts  at approx 75dpi or 100dpi 
for display on the screen, but when I parsed them through Metafont there are a 
couple of lines which require rescanning.  Is there any way to fix this problem 
as in the project we would like to call metafont and create the fonts the 
following way. 

Call MetaFont to create pk/tfm files and a specific resolution and size

Read them in using a pkreader

Convert them into bitmap images for display on the screen.
