 That's very well possible. Helvetica is only available as bitmap font on 
 the systems I tested it (NetBSD and Solaris). When I use e.g. "Luxi 
 Sans" on NetBSD, the fonts are rendered okay, this font is available as 
 Type 1 and TTF. When I use "Utopia", unfortunately a bitmap version of 
 that font is used instead of the Type 1 version. So at the moment only 
 vector fonts seem to work that don't also have a bitmap variant.
