Since the SMF Type 42 record was enhanced to include PDS member info, maybe 
that might be helpful?

Or maybe a product like SOFTAUDT (or whatever it is called today) might help.

I am a little fuzzy on fonts and whether or not the member is actually 
"touched" to generate either a TYPE42 or other SMF data.  

Is it possible the fonts are loaded in storage and then use when needed?  If 
so, the above will not work.  Other than for the start of the Printer address 
space.  Or refresh in VPS.
