I did a:

  $ ls | xargs -L1 detype1 | grep "stem "

and the result was empty. `detype1' is from the AFDKO. I tried the
same with `t1disasm' too, none either. I guess this one doesn't have
hints...

Thanks, I'll try that.

I presume not; fonts with AFM data are still being handled properly,
such as with Courier in one of the gifs I posted.
