Font Help! Anyone have TransType Pro conversion software?

I bought a font for a job and now realize the Open Type format is not compatible with my older version of Illustrator (version 9 -- go ahead and laugh). I tried the trial version of TransType Pro but it created a distorted, unusable font. I will admit I'm poor and can't afford to pay $180 for the full version which I'd rarely use.

I need to convert this font to Postscript -- anyone have TransType Pro and willing to provide a couple of mouse clicks and convert it for me? I am desperate to finish this design project today (Sunday, July 8) if possible.

Thanks!

try this site. i dont know alot about font converters but theres a few different programs to have a look at. hope they help.

S U C C E S S !!! I got a tip at another forum from Mike (Photoshop Tutorials, Free Fonts, QuarkXPress, Graphics Tutorials) -- by loading the font into the Mac System Folder instead of activating it through Suitcase, I am able to use the Open Type font in Illustrator. Yippee!
