From the Allegro FAQ:

   Where can I get some fonts to use with Allegro?

      The grabber can import directly from GRX or BIOS format .fnt files, or

      you can draw them onto a .pcx image using any paint program. See the 
      Allegro website for a utility (ttf2pcx) that will convert Windows 
      TrueType fonts into this .pcx format.

The exact address is http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/ttf2pcx/
