Please make following tests and controlling above PDF:
a) Helvetica in document => export as PDF => test fonts with pdffonts
   => in my OOo2 I have the font "NimbusSansL-Regu" in the PDF
b) Define "substition table" as written in my email before
c) Helvetica in document => export as PDF => test fonts with pdffonts
   => in my OOo2 I have the font "Helvetica" in the PDF

What do you will say with "Nimbus Sans L is still to large" ?

Yes, I have installed all Windows-98 fonts

Yes, I have this fonts too, but they will generated with an alias-file
inside the fonts-path.


Now another info for your special wish: You CAN use helvetica fonts, it
doesn't matter, wether you can see the font in the font-selector-list.
You could make helvetica fonts visible in the list (only for writer!),
but it's a little bit tricky and have no relevance / advantage, because
you need again the fonts-substitution as written in my first email.
