I would suggest cbgreek (Claudio Beccari is the author). See ctan : 
fonts/greek/cb/
It offers Postscript fonts that are really excellent.

Other fonts/packages:

ibycus-babel : language/greek/package-babel/ibycus-babel/
to be used with the ibycus fonts

teubner : macros/latex/contrib/teubner/ 
for a more advanced use of Prof. Beccari's fonts.
