Having finally got a chance to use a laserwriter, I discovered that with the Font Substitution option on, Geneva fonts get replaced by larger Helvetica fonts but that the same size replacements are used for Monaco and New York. For instance, a word in Geneva 12 seems to come out in Helvetica 14, not 12. What is happening here? Can it be stopped short of manually changing all occurrences of Helvetica in documents? I find this all particularly weird because the Helvetica fonts look larger in a given size than Courier or Times Roman.
