Not completely sure as I haven't been there within the last couple months but .....
www.easy400.net
might have something. Giovanni Perotti has all kinds of free tools that really work well.
Or try
https://all400s.com/
Once there, click the "resources" tab and then click "links". From there, you'll see my link.
It's a bit dated (in process of being updated) but there's a lot of info there free.
Or try this. Always interesting material, some old, some new but you never know.

I did find some pages that referred to the PFB font files in /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts, but nothing about using PFA fonts in stead of PFB, nothing about availablility of PFA fonts, nothing about any products or options I need to install to be able to use PFA fonts.
Well, if CoolSpools is using the font files from that directory, maybe it is as simple as converting the required PFB font files to PFA format. I notice on our system, we have quite a few PFB files but no PFA files. There are a number of free tools for converting one to the other. Maybe try it, and put the resulting PFA files in the same directory as the PFB, and see what happens?
We are converting the spoolfiles to PDF using a third party product called CoolSpools. The PDF is created as a valid PDF/A-1a document so I don't think the problem is with this application (but I have asked them for advice anyway).
Though it may not be a "problem" with their application, per se, they should know *how* they are grabbing the fonts, and thus hopefully can offer guidance on how to provide their software what it needs.
