OpenOffice.org1.1.2 for OS X comes with a series of ten Helvetica Neue
TTFs. These bear both LinoType and Adobe copyrights; not really sure
how they got into my distro. Assuming these are the same, did you get
them all? (http://tinyurl.com/483ae)
You may need to install them (the ones from marketing) with Adobe Type
Manager, as well as or in preference to dropping them into `fonts\`.
Adobe enforces rigid DRM on Windows systems that have been compromised
by its products. ;)
