A commercial offering is the Sonata font from Adobe, see
<http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_021.html>

The TeX fonts are probably METAFONT fonts (I haven't looked at it);
some work has been done on converting METAFONT to Type 1, but this
isn't an automatic process, and due to the conceptual differences of
the METAFONT and Type 1 font models, it seems to be non-trivial.
