Just read this

 You won't get kerning information and what not if you get AFMs
from the PFBs.  You can, however, get the necessary AFM files
from Adobe's ftp server (you'll have to know the package number
for the fonts you bought):
    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/mac/all/afmfiles
"
By searching a bit, this location seemed interesting:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/

Alternative not perfect reading this (same website):
"
> Ghostscript comes with this:

> NAME
>      pf2afm - Make an AFM file from Postscript (PFB/PFA/PFM) font
>      files using ghostscript

But you will only get width and kerning information on those characters
that are
covered by the code page defined in the .pfm file - at most for 224
characters.

The width of all characters can be obtained from the Type1 code itself,
but for the
kerning info, you are restricted to what's in the .pfm.

The original .afm files from Adobe are complete.

(I learn something everyday :-))
