switched printers -- now HelvObl prints with extra slant

[L MORITSUGU]

Thanks very much for your suggestions. I fixed it, a day and a half later, 
after installing the fonts through Font Book, not directly into the System 9 
Fonts folder (which I thought I'd read somewhere was the same thing, but 
maybe not).

Thanks.

Louise Moritsugu
