i can point you to sassoon primary. what do you mean when you say you
want something similar, do you mean you don't want the original?

if you click on that link below, ending in "zip", you'll download the
sassoon primary font to your computer. unzip and install!!

I don't know how useful even unzipped TFM files are going to be to him
since he does not seem to be know what a Tex system is let alone be
using one. Also, the TFMs are useless without the other font files to go
with them. The TFM files are not fonts. Just possibly, you know that.

Nothing is quite so similar as the genuine article. However, they are
not free.
