Another problem may be that the fonts are available in .pfa format. I did convert them to .pfb's with pfa2pfb and the .pfb files got half the size of the .pfa files (maybe that is how it is supposed to be?)
Sorry, I can't help you with math font installation. But the different size is ok: Have a look into the files: PFA is "Postscript Font ASCII", while PFB is "Postscript Font Binary", now guess why a compressed binary is smaller than an ASCII... ;-) But pdfTeX or dvips can handle PFAs also (AFAIK).

Thank you for your answer Hraban! I have tested and nearly got all fonts to work. Nice with a lot of extra fonts. The .pfa files are working very well. i still got a question though. I can't get the DoubleStrucked letters to work. For example the letter A: I want to have something similar to: \definemathsymbol[DoubleStruckCapitalA][xyz][mr]['301] But when doing $\DoubleStruckCapitalA$ I don't get the doublestrucked A :( The arguments I don't really understand are the [xyz] (which isn't xyz but ord or op or so, but it doesn't seem to work whatever I chose) and [mr]. I think the [mr] one is right, since the doublestruck letters are from the wtmrm.tfm and I have mr=MathOperator and a synonym of MathOperator pointing to wtmrm. The funny thing is that I can get the character to work, by typing \definedfont[wtmrm]{\char '301}. It also appears on place 301 ("C1) when I do \ShowFont[MathOperator][wtmrm][texnansi] I probably have one more question about bold math fonts, but thats a later problem. Anyone know howto solve this?
