I read a number of posts in this thread; few had anything useful to say...

First of all, FL_HELVETICA is a #define from fltk.

Cf http://www.fltk.org/doc-1.1/enumerations.html

So with which USE flags have you compiled fltk?

If you have eix installed, eix fltk will show them.

You probably want the xft and/or cairo flags enabled.

If you have xft, fltk will use fontconfig and client-side fonts.

And then running:

  :; fc-match helvetica

will show you which font fontconfig will use when asked for helvetica.

Also, try this:

  :; XFT_DEBUG=1 flpsed

If fltk uses xft, then that will show you which fonts it selected.

If nothing prints than fltk is compiled to use server-side fonts.
Which you probably prefer to avoid.
