- The character you want is found on the Haber and Thompson fonts
- (Helvetica and Times lookalikes respectively) from
-
- Allotype Typographics
- 1600 Packard Road Suite 5
- Ann Arbor, MI 48104
-
- There are also h-bars and other useful characters for scientists.
- This is a type-1 postscript font (works with ATM).
-
- Anyone have the phone number?
