This case, Albany vs. Helvetica is, well, pathologic. Albany is the name of StarOffice's metrically compatible replacement font for Arial (and Helvetica). Thus it's first in lots of replacement lists (VCL.xcu). Maybe we can patch these lists to put Albany at the end (as its non-free/not the Albany that debian users have installed etc.) However, I don't even know if VCL.xcu is relevant in this case. Martin
