The FileNet fonts look just like Helvetica, but they are monospaced. We would love to find a font that represents our screen more accurately. Right now we just use Helvetica, so spacing is never accurate. But this seems preferable to using any of the other monospaced fonts that don't look like the same typeface. We would not want to use an ImageWriter font. Thanks for any leads. Shirley Kehr
