.pfb .pfm font files



I have an archive of ps fonts from back in 1996. They have pfb and pfm
extensions (for each font name there is a pair of files like foo.pfm
and foo.pfb).

Are these fonts usable with X? I'd imagine they were, because I have a
directory /usr/lib/X11/fonts/freefont with a bunch of .pfb fonts.

If yes, how do I create fonts.dir for them? `mkfontdir' expects pcf,
cnf, or bfd extensions.

Thanks!
