I know that arial and helvetica are very stylistically similar fonts, but doesn't the program you make videos in tell you want font you're typing in? have you never noticed it might've been displaying arial as the chosen font?
i think the way i had it configured, helvetica probably wasn't showing up in the list. And sure, i could have fixed it, but how important is that really, compared to the extreme lack of almost any kind of detail in the modeling, and the drastically astronomical amount of time it takes to create any kind of scene
