So the URW fonts are better?

afaik more stable; also, embedding the 15 base fonts is more safe for cross platform viewing (where they may be mapped onto whatever is available/demanded by the os)

I thought I got them. pdftex is no longer including them, or list them

as included. However, in Adobe Acrobat Reader, when I look at the
included fonts, the names look like Microsoft TTF names.

indeed, arial instead of helvetica and so
