You probably want to read about fontconfig and it's various utilities -
fc-match, etc.

You likely don't, but perhaps find a better match. The preferred
provider I believe is currently:
$ fc-match 'Helvetica LT Std'
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
Install dejavu-sans-fonts if you don't already have it. You might also
search around for 'msttcorefonts' - not sure what MS fonts were provided
in that old thing.
