Thank you very much Sir!  Your message has helped me resolve this issue.  I changed the 12 to 11 and voila it worked!

[olivares@localhost Documents]$ xlsfonts |grep helvetica-medium-r-normal

My sister bought me an HP48G with RPN in 1993 and I have it at home, but I like to have it run virtually and now thanks to your suggestion, I got it working :)

Best Regards,


Antonio
