Anyone got Helvetica Font for PC? I thought I had it but I don't have it on any of my PC's for some reason. I need to use it in Word and Excel, and for some reason it's not in my list of fonts.

Much thanks.

I'm guessing you're having trouble displaying a document? If you copy and paste arial or verdana and rename it Helvetica, what happens?

Nah we are trying to submit some grants and apparently it has to be in Helvetica font. It comes standard on the Mac but not the PC apparently.

I read on Wiki that PCs don't have it because it is more expensive than Arial. Have you tried copying it over from a mac? Maybe your favorite P2P client might have it. A quick google search revealed that you can buy it here: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/linotype/helvetica/
