If it's available, gftodvi is a useful tool as well. It creates a large bitmap with annotations of locations on it (it was used for the illustrations in Computer Modern Typefaces). It would be so much nicer to use with contemporary previewing capabilities than things were back in 1990 when I had to send my gftodvi output to the Xerox printer in the basement of the computer center, hope it didn't crash the printer and get my printout half an hour later.
