CTAN update: cmgraded
Tiny fix to make cmgraded workable with the old latex->dvips->ps2pdf. Note that since the package normally loads Type 1 fonts at runtime, for the above use case you have to enable the desired map files in advance with updmap; see the package documentation for details.

cmgraded – Classic LaTeX look and feel in different grades of blackness
This package contains OpenType and Type 1 (Adobe/PostScript) fonts named “Computer Modern Graded” that have been generated from the original “Computer Modern” fonts by Donald E. Knuth and TeX metrics by applying different grades of “blackness” via METAFONT that make the fonts gradually darker, while keeping metrics intact and not turning a regular weight font visually into a bold one.
The fonts come in seven increasingly black grades and can be easily used. Text fonts are OpenType, while math is so far with Type 1 fonts, which means that text can be fully tagged and thus made accessible. There are many more options and angles to this package than meet the eye, just see the documentation.
Of course, the fonts can also be used outside of TeX/LaTeX, with anything that speaks OpenType, including web content.
