What is the reason for the following printing incorrectness of Helvetica Bold? 
If I print to laser something _boldtext_ in Helvetica Bold and continue then
with normaltext, then the end of _boldtext_ is printed on top of the beginning
of the normaltext.  And if I underline bolded text, then the underline is too
short (so long as it would be under normal text).  

My system: Mac II with system 6.0.7 and Laserwriter II NT.
Other fonts than Helvetica seem to print correctly.
Interestingly Helvetiva is printed correctly from another Mac II with system
6.0.5 to the same laser!  

Someone seems to believe that bolded text is as long as normal text, someone
not. Whose fault?  Any suggestions to correct? Back to 6.0.5 or is there better
Helvetica?
