[My EM fonts are the PS ones (LWFN + FFIL pairs generated as you suggested: http://email.esm.psu.edu/pipermail/textures/2011-March/000049.html), whereas for the metrics I just used Y&Y’s (LY1) TFMs and changed their encoding to "TeXnANSI" directly from within Textures’ TeX metrics window.]

Thank you for this, Bruno!… But why the heck do they have to be so "mysterious" about it?? :-/
