I suppose I could try to create one in a virtual machine, but it will
take some time---I start teaching next week.

If you install Adobe Reader, the fonts will appear in /opt.
It is then necessary to place a file in /etc/fonts/conf.d, such as the
following:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<dir>/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Resource/Font</dir>
</fontconfig>
