For downloadable tengwar-fonts (and other fonts), try 
*  http://www.gis.net/~dansmith/fonts/index.html (also includes some 
downloadable utilities for easier use of his fonts; 
http://user.tninet.se/~xof995c/tengscribe.htm has a program for 
writing in tengwar, with downloadable modes to suit various elvish 
languages as well as English, German, Spanish, Swedish, Italian, 
Portuguese and Klingon.  There is also a mode-editor available to 
create other modes.), 
*  http://wwwusers.imaginet.fr/~smartin/elfique/font_pc_eng.htm , 
*  http://www.sci.fi/~alboin/tengwar.htm (which contains also a 
tutorial on how to write with tengwar, and links to similar 
information), and 
*  http://cgm.cs.mcgill.ca/~luc/runes.html (this last one is a large 
list of links to sites with tengwar- and angerthas-fonts, old 
Phoenician, old English, old Norse, fantasy-fonts, Star Trek-fonts, 
etc.)
