If it offers all sizes instead of only a few ones, it's truetype. If |
| 5 |
not, it's bitmap. |

I don't think a truetype version of Helvetica is in any portage package. |

You will have to grab the font from somewhere else and install it |

manually. If you're using KDE, you can do that with its font installer. |

There's a clone of Helvetica though in the media-fonts/liberation-fonts |
| 12 |
package. It's recreation of Helvetica, Times and Courier with a "free" |
| 13 |
license. I prefer the original though; it's easy to get it if you can |
| 14 |
use Google. |
