Are your files at all useful for this? It would be nice to be able to use the old style script (not the fraktur script)  in one of those font files.

The support files permit the use of the calligraphic, fraktur and blackboard bold alphabets from the old Adobe Mathematical Pi fonts, though after they re installed, I think the best way to use them is, for example, 

\usepackage[cal=mathpi,calscaled=.95,frak=mathpi]{mathalfa}

after other math packages are loaded. (You can use scr instead of cal (or both) if you want $\mathscr{A}$ to print as mathematical Pi script A.)

There's another package on my site called fontset.dmg which contains some macros for the TeXShop macro menu, one of which (TestFontset) shows you the relative sizes of the fonts you are using, all highly magnified and overlying a grid so you can determine scaling factors more readily.
