I have Slackware 9.0 running KDE3.1.3. There is a limited choice of fonts
available in Konsole. Some other distros (eg. Debian, Mandrake) have a nice
Helvetica fixed font. How can I transfer these fonts from another distro
into my Konsole fonts in Slackware?

I've tried installing TrueType fonts (as per the Linux Deuglification page),
but they're not fixed, and aren't available in Konsole.
