FT2 doesn't come with a PFR font module, though it shouldn't be
be difficult to add one (the same is true for other formats like
Speedo, PCL, MetaFont, wathever..).

It's simply that our free time is limited, and supporting
TrueType/Type1/CFF covers most of the market today. I also
don't have much appeal to support proprietary font formats
in default distributions of the library.

On the other hand, if you need one, I can write a PFR font
driver on a contract basis..
