Closest Professor Pac-man font = ITC Grizzly

In continuing to try to find the right font used in the Professor Pac-man control panel overlay instructions, today I found a font that looks like it could be very similar to the “ITC Grizzly”. It’s just called “Grizzly BT” and looks like it is an Adobe Postscript font, file names Grizzlyn.afm, .pfb, and .pfm.

I can’t seem to get the font to work on my font management software on Windows Vista Ultimate. I tried to set it up downstairs on XP, and it worked fine, it even came up in Illustrator as “ITC Grizzly”, so I know I have the right font. It appears to line up just fine with the text on the Professor Pac control panel, there will have to be some leading and kerning of course, and there is some small differences in different letters, like the “s”, but it will work as a great base, and save me a ton of time.
