[fa.laser-lovers] More font madness: "Helvetica" Fonts

    I'm looking for some TeX/Imagen readable version  of the "helvetica"
    fonts (e.g., .tfm, and raster or pixel files).

    What I'd like them for is to make view-graphs.  Although there are a
    number  of  attractive  fonts  around for  slides (amss  at 16pt and
    ambg24 are my favorites), the  person who  wants to  make slides has
    his heart set on the  "helvetica" font  you get  with Croy lettering
    machines (?!?).  So, I'm looking...

    Could  someone  point  me to  someone who  has 'em?   I'll negotiate
    licensing/pricing problems as they arise.

Thanks in advance,

Sylvan, please keep us Laser-lovers informed as to the legal repurcussions
of your distributing fonts under the trade name "Helvetica".  Are any of
U of C's legal beagles aware of this activity?  -david
