Method 1:
Install the Helvetica that comes with Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.x for Windows:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobatreader/win/3.x/ar302.exe
HVBO____.PFB
HVB_____.PFB
HVO_____.PFB
HV______.PFB
Get the AFM files here:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/type/win/all/afmfiles/900-960/950/
Convert all of the file names to ALL LOWER CASE before installing.
Method 2:
Make the needed entry in: "/etc/fonts/local.conf" so that FontConfig
will use: "Nimbus Sans L" in place of Helvetica (that is the URW clone
of Helvetica that comes with GhostScript).
Method 3:
Change the appropriate default CSS.
