Hello,

How use Helvetica font with FreeBSD 6.3-Release ?
I follow this page 
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/fr_FR.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-fonts.html) 
and installed urwfont but I can't see Helvetica font on OpenOffice or 
Abiword.

see my `pkg_info | grep font` :
bdftopcf-1.0.1

However, I can see Helvetica in `fc-list | grep Helvetica` :
Helvetica:style=Oblique
Helvetica:style=Bold
Helvetica:style=Regular
Helvetica:style=Bold Oblique

Here is my font config in xorg.conf :
        FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/freefont/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/OTF"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/webfonts/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/dejavu/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/util/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/"
        FontPath        "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/URW/"


Thanks for your help
